She moved to York and then to Leeds before eventually making it to London where she forged a successful career in pop music. This included playing on many CD’s by the likes of David Bowie and Mica Paris. Since then she has played with many of the country’s finest jazz musicians including Dave Newton, Alan Barnes and Art Themen. She has performed concerts in USA, Japan, and extensively in Europe including many TV performances. Most recently she has worked with Claud Deppa a South African trumpet player.
