In 2016 he released his acclaimed ‘How Can We Know?’ EP, a collection of original melodies, and will release his debut full length solo album in 2017.

He is member of the cult London swing group Kansas Smitty’s House Bandand performs regularly at many top UK venues including Ronnie Scott’s, The Jazz Cafe, the 606 club, and the Royal Festival Hall.
