I’m a composer and singer/songwriter, and I release music through Lost Map Records, based on the Isle of Eigg.
My first album was Limbs & Digits in 2009, then Landing in 2012, then a gap until Closing, which Lauren Laverne picked as one of her Best of 2016. I also write music about health and medicine, usually based on interviews or workshops with other people. These pieces have so far been about hospital-induced delirium (Delirium Pts 1 and 2), voice-hearing (The Isle Is Full of Noises) and chronic respiratory disorders (Singing Hospital). I’m currently releasing new a series of postcards through Lost Map with hopes of an album some time in 2020.
I also run the Culture, Health & Wellbeing Alliance, and am a Research Associate in the medical humanities at WiSER (University of the Witwatersrand, Johannesburg). Get in touch via the form below…
