I write and record strings for commercial records; being an experienced improviser combined with classical training ensures the best result in any studio session. Recent releases with my stringlines include Arrdee & Greentea Peng. As a solo artist I'm known as The Grime Violinist: performing live electric violin to chart and rap around the world.
