Geoff’s journey to becoming a composer seemed almost like a twist of fate. He was performing at a charity gig when he was approached by an audience member who wanted to hire Geoff to play on radio jingles. As he began to compose more of his own work, Geoff met a friend of a friend who worked with music libraries - and the rest, as they say, is history.

These days, Geoff leads a busy and varied career as a music teacher, session musician, performer, band leader and composer. The breadth of his musical experience feeds through to his work as a composer, as he draws from a wide range of influences. He specialises in bold melodies and punchy rhythms, as well as composing snappy 60-second songs.

Outside of work, Geoff enjoys kicking back with a classic film or strumming away in his home studio with a nice cup of tea by his side.
