Where The Heart Roams - Album Launch Concert ✨
I’m beyond delighted to invite you to a very special evening celebrating the release of my debut album, Where The Heart Roams.
There are moments in a creative life that feel almost unreal. After years of thought, writing, questioning, refining, remembering, and dreaming, my album is stepping into the world - and I can hardly believe it is real! This album is my debut not only as a soprano, but also as a composer. At its centre lies a question that has quietly shaped both my life and my artistry: what does “home” truly mean? Born in Wigan, formed musically in Manchester and beyond, I have long felt the gentle tension between rootedness and movement. The life of an artist is often nomadic - travel, opportunity, reinvention — yet beneath that movement lies something constant: the landscapes, people, memories and voices that anchor us.
This album is my attempt to honour that.
