I started my musical journey as a bassoon player in the Army before discovering the world of brass banding. I first played with Catterick Brass, then joined NASUWT Riverside and their Concert Band, and have depped on percussion with Cockerton Prize Silver Band for several years before officially joining. My favourite memory is winning Best Percussion at the 2023 Regionals with Cockerton. I’m a primary school teacher and music lead by day, and with my whole family playing in different brass bands, it’s definitely a family affair!
