Songs for Choirs
My songs are a combination of heart-felt, simple and (hopefully) beautiful and interesting to sing. Often inspired by the gospel and North American folk songs of my musical roots, my songs come from a deep desire to sing in harmony and in community, about what I truly believe in.
My songs have travelled far and wide, and are being shared in the true oral tradition, by ear, around campfires and at community and life events, and I love this! I believe in the power of song. I believe it is everyone's birthright, and I love that people enjoy singing and sharing my songs. And I am trying to find the balance between wanting people to sing my songs freely, and being valued for my gifts (and being able to pay my bills). So, if you have taught my songs, please consider supporting my song-writing by buying them, even if you already know them.....
If you can't afford to pay me anything, I would still love you to keep singing my songs! Maybe get in touch to let me know where my songs have travelled to in the world, and what they mean to you.
I have a growing catalogue of songs, 11 of which can no be found in my first songbook! But I will continue to add the scores (and audio files) to new songs here to be purchased for £10 each.

Fire In My Heart
An anthemic song for peace, in 4 interlocking parts. A favourite for many choirs. It is an easy learn song, with an upbeat, forward moving feeling. SATB
May There Be Peace
A simple soothing, chant like song in 3 parts. Inspired by the Buddhist Metta meditation, this is a song for peace - from the inside and spreading out to the world.
Joy's Christmas Round
Written by Joy Juckes (my mum), this uplifting, and jaunty Christmas round is sure to become a seasonal favourite.
