Stella and the Dreaming

From behind a garage door somewhere, stuffed with duvets and carpet covered frames, I write and record on a stripped back piano, distilling all my influences and obsessions into song-making. I give melody a world to live in, surrounded by keys changing and distorted vocals - this is the Dreaming.

Everything you hear is me; vocals, instrumentation and production.
