Oie Voaldyn - Feeagh Ghoo
Music for the Oie Voaldyn & Oie Houney Pageants (two festivals held in the Isle of Man)
This recent release is a piece of music was written specifically for Oie Voaldyn, a Manx festival that celebrates the arrival of summer. It was also aimed to be used for Oie Houney which celebrates the old Celtic new year.
Feeagh Ghoo (Black Raven) is inspired by the iconic bird that holds a special place in Manx folklore and mythology for change, and its powerful presence is reflected in the driving rhythms and soaring melodies of the music. I'm excited to share this piece with those who attend Oie Voaldyn and later in the year Oie Houney, and I hope it adds to the sense of excitement and community that both festivals inspire!

The Manx Blue Carbon Project
Sleih ny Marrey – People of the Sea
As a small, independent island nation (which is 85% sea!) the Isle of Man has the chance to take a truly inclusive approach to looking after our blue carbon – working together across Government, and with the fishing community, scientists, conservationists, and business.
I was set the task to help bring the footage alive by composing music that helped tell the story to Islanders and resonate with the community.
