I'm a songwriter, indie musician, comic writer and novelist.

My graphic novel Painted (originally self-released as Warpaint) was published by Humanoids Inc in 2021.

I have self-published my first novel, 'Here Be Apples' in 2025.

I've performed in the indie guitar band Attic Lights since 2005 and released three critically acclaimed albums – “Friday Night Lights” (Island/Universal Records, 2008), “Super De Luxe” (Elefant Records, 2013) and “Love In The Time of Shark Attacks” (Elefant Records, 2019).
I'm also a member of the ‘indie dance pop’ collective, ‘Disco Mary’.

In music I've collaborated with international artists like Bjorn Yttling, Cerys Matthews and La Casa Azul and my songs have been remixed by Mogwai, Camera Obscura, The Fratellis, Jim Noir and The Vaselines. My music with Attic Lights has appeared on HBO’s comedy-drama Divorce, Netflix’s Elite, MTV’s Teen Mom, BBC’s The Culture Show, The One Show, Sportscene and ITV’s Scotsport and STV News.

Very occasionally I try to surf, thus aiming to satisfy a teenage need to be in the movie Point Break. I run too. Very slowly, but quite far. Then I turn back and run home after that, while listening to music at high volumes. This will probably damage my hearing in the years to come – but I have an absurd faith in the future possibilities of medical science.
