Hi, I'm Cal — a songwriter, artist development coach, multi-instrumentalist and vocal coach (DBS Checked). I help songwriters, musicians and creative artists develop not only their craft, but also the confidence to express ideas that feel authentic.

Whether you're writing your first song, refining your musical style, preparing a portfolio, or developing original material for university, performance or release, we'll work together to strengthen both your creative process and your musical skills.

My teaching combines practical songwriting, music theory, arrangement and creativity in a supportive, student-centred environment.
