Folk, Acoustic, Renaissance, Guitar and Voice
I am a solo artist and specialise in Folk and Renaissance Music, originally written for Lute and Voice. I have been performing in Folk Clubs since I was 17, initially at The Coach House, Farningham, Kent. Presently I am signed to Pixie-Tricks Heritage and Media Ltd, and am currently recording a CD that will include a selection of songs by John Dowland. My husband Matthew will be accompanying me on classical guitar.

Story behind the song
I did not write it, it's hundreds of years old though
Lyrics
O Ale Abalendo, thou liquor of life, would I had a mouth as big as a whale, but mine is too little to sound the least tittle that belongs to the praise of a pot of good ale. Although it will never be as big as I wish yet still I'll endeavour to drink like a fish!
