Two Big Feet (2025) dir. Noah Stratton Twine

WINNER: Jury Prize, Manchester International Film Festival
WINNER: Best Film, Gloucester Film Festival
WINNER: Best Overall Film, Folkestone Film Festival

Two of my tracks are featured in 'Two Big Feet':
Friendly Creatures and This Is All New.
It continues to be a joy collaborating with Noah Stratton Twine (Director), Ollie Woolf (Lead Actor) and Luke Rollason (Lead Actor). Ollie and Noah made the film on a micro-budget with their best friends, and the film is enjoying an award-winning, barn-storming reception.

On Your Bike Baffo,
​Oh! Productions, supported by Arts Council England

I was brought on board by Oliver Harrison (Writer, Director, Producer, Clown) and close collaborator Mella Faye to score this hilarious clown show, live, using as many instruments as possible: Double Bass, Melodicas, Harmonicas, Shakers Tambourines, Snare Drums, Bells and Whistles. Huge thanks to Mella for introducing me to Olly. It's enormous fun to play together and I am crossing my fingers for a UK tour in 2026.

Music by Alice Boyd

I have recorded strings (violin and double bass) for Alice Boyd on three of her releases: Little River, The Favourite, ​and Arctic Ice. Alice is a wonderful songwriter and sound artist making work that explores our interconnectedness with the natural world. Her music is an absolute balm. You can listen here:
