She has performed at parties during the Cannes film festival with Norman Jay, at the Monaco Grand Prix on Armani's yacht and at Robert Cavelli's retro-futuristic mansion.

With her band she entertained VIP's at UEFA cup final in Athens, mixing afro-beat and nu-jazz with funk and hip-hop grooves. Most recently she recorded for Laylo and Bushwaker and hip-hop  maestros Boarder Crossing. She also played on the sound track for the new Tony Kaye movie, yet to be released.

All Female Collective:

This saxophonist also plays with a collective of top-flight female musicians who work together extensively in varying formats. The ensemble can work as an acoustic walk-about group, or as a DJ plus walk- bout instrumentalists. The possible combinations are percussionist, (snare drum and hand percussion), acoustic bass/guitar, singer, DJ, sax/flute/clarinet, violin/electric violin. They all work together extensively and have a great rapport, so the music works really well for mix and mingle, stand-alone background music and feature performances where some added sparkle is required.

"She reaches amazing heights as a sax player. When she
swings it's a long way to the 'down' beat. Koolness"
- Nigel Kennedy

"She dazzles the audience every time. A fantastic performer, everyone deserves great sax"- Sir Richard Branson

"You're just wonderfull!" - Kim Cattrall

"Marvellous, marvellous playing"- Bruce Forsythe
