My musical experience includes:

- Experience performing at jazz jams and folk sessions around Canberra
- Close to two years running the Canberra Eurosession (a group that meets at Smith's Alternative every Monday at 4pm to play tunes used in various styles of European traditional folk dancing).
As of 2024 we've performed at the National Folk Festival (NFF) and Majors Creek Festival, and we will be performing at the 2025 NFF and Multicultural Festival.
