thank you…
Starfish Designs harp makers, for their trust and support, enthusiasm and commitment to furthering the development of the Scottish harp
to the musicians who give me inspiration, wonderful sounds to listen to
and who give their time and energy to make music with me
Alistair MacDonald, outstanding musician with the finest ears
Chris Stout, musician and bbq-er extraordinaire!
Marthe Valle, you made one of my all time favourite albums Ro/Uro (and had Chris and me play on it)
Kris Kesiak for my brilliant Harponium and Love in Secret photographs, and the many other photo sessions, outstanding ethos and design work. You capture the spirit of the music with your vision as if by magic, what a gift you are.
