Musician
I have been involved in many projects in my 20+ years of performing. Here are the main ones...
The Golden Troubadours
The Golden Troubadours are a dreamlike acoustic band from Nottingham who write unique soulful songs with shades of flamenco, folk, soul and blues performed withpassion and feeling, which leave the heart-strings lovingly played.
Bowman, Hull & The Instant Band
Bowman, Hull & The Instant Band have been musical comrades for many a long year. Playing an original rhythm and bluesical, musical stew for you, and those who like to boogaloo. Come and hear us play!

Scratch Electric
A 20 piece electric guitar orchestra featuring Ludi Quartet with very special guest Adrian Utley (Portishead) and some of the best guitarists from the Nottingham music scene.
Led by renowned composer Adrian Lee, the orchestra will perform minimalist classics by Steve Reich, Terry Riley Arvo Part and a brand new composition written specially for the orchestra.
Oldboy
Executed with a ballsy passion and tones dark enough to get lost in, Oldboy are united by an incredible enthusiasm, confidence and courage to make music that matters and are determined to bring their sound to you with urgency and fury.
Tim McDonald and The Leisure Class
From the unabashed romance of opener Chinese Waltz, this debut recalls Ed Harcourt, Rufus Wainwright at his least grating and, surprisingly, Radiohead. Bedroom noodling of this ilk can often lead to singer-songwriter sameyness - an issue that McDonald largely sidesteps by demonstrating the breadth of his musical palette. Like Harcourt, the highlights come when he pushes the sonic envelope, as he does in The Drop (which, replete with jittery drumbeats, sounds like Thom Yorke on a good day) and Tooth and Claw. Production and musicianship is polished throughout.
Lisa De'Ville
Lisa writes poignant lyrics that brood over a rich folk inspired guitar sound.
Not afraid to write songs with imagination and integrity, Lisa's songs have been described as 'epic folk' (Farmyard records), with heartbreaking melodies that range from dark folk to dynamic, passionate rolling heartbeat rhythms all with a crystal clear, soaring voice.
Green For Go
"Green For Go are the real deal. Soaked in delay and reverb, with the balls and urgency of angry young men with something worthwhile to say and no time for f*cking about." - Fire In The Disco
Ardency
The music Ardency creates is the expression of their intense, collective desire to write original, melodic and emotive songs borne from personal experience about the human condition with the aim of striking a chord with the listener.
