What does your butterfly logo represent?
The symbolism of a butterfly ‘emerging’ from its former life in a cocoon describes perfectly my launch into music after 11 years of not having enough confidence to.
Who is the artist?
My son! He brought it home from preschool for me one day and I knew it had to be my mascot.

Nirvana, Smashing Pumpkins, Chillis, The Pixies, Blur, Faith No More, Soundgarden, Rage, Metallica, Stone Temple Pilots.
If you’ve been writing songs all this time, why have you only just launched your career?
I didn’t feel I knew myself well enough nor had the mental toughness until now. I just knew it was the right time.
How many songs have you written?
Just over 400 to date.
Does it upset you that somebody else might be chosen to sing your songs instead of you?
Not at all! As a writer, the songs are my legacy - to get them heard is my goal, to sing them myself is a bonus!
