I have three singles to share with you over the next six weeks, the first of which is out today! Since my first album came out almost exactly four years ago, I thought it would be nice to do a felted-piano version of the title track “Rainbow Hill”, and I’m thrilled to see it get some love from Apple Music on their esteemed Piano Chill playlist! You can stream or purchase from your favourite platform here 👉 https://ffm.to/rainbow-hill Hope you enjoy it 🎶🎹🎶

New singles incoming! Three pieces I can’t wait to share with you all are due for release between now and the end of the year - a new recording of an old piece, and two brand new works 🎹🎶.

In case you were wondering whether I’ve had a significant change of style - no, I haven’t released a new jazz single today ;)

Thanks to Doug Thomas for adding “Acceptance” to this playlist along with such esteemed artists!

Oh well, it seems like the Piano Chill curator at Apple Music forgot to include Einaudi’s latest single, so mine was unceremoniously sacrificed from this week’s new additions after only a couple of hours! C’est la vie!

My new EP is out today on all major platforms!
