About Me

Where It All Began

I grew up on the West Coast of Scotland in a town on the banks of the River Clyde. My mum was American, so I had a foot in two worlds—Scottish roots and American dreams. It gave me a love for travel, exploring and history as well a curiosity about the wider world.

A Life in the Arts

I studied Art and Design, majoring in Ceramics, and spent hours shaping clay, sketching ideas, and exploring how form and texture tell stories. I’ve always loved the arts—wandering through galleries like the Kelvingrove Art Gallery in Glasgow, where the grandeur of Scottish creativity is on full display, and the Alte Nationalgalerie in Berlin, where I saw magnificent works of art and history.

Music in the Air

Music was part of our home. My dad had a hobby of fixing radios for friends, so we always had music playing—folk ballads, soft rock, soul, and everything in between. I grew up loving differnt genres from Scottish folk, American country, soft rock, and the soulfulness of artists who sang about the subjects that mattered to them.

From Journals to Songs

I’ve always written—journals, poems, lyrics. It was my way of making sense of things. Over time, those notes turned into songs. Now, I’m proud to say I’ve released several of my songs available on Amazon Music, Apple Music, and Spotify. It’s a celebration of everything that’s brought me here—my roots, my travels, my faith, and the stories I carry.

My Sound and Style

My music is about connection. It’s about the love of Scotland, the pull of the road, the quiet moments of reflection, and the joy of creating something that lasts. I experiment with styles—Scottish Celtic, Acoustic, Folk, Soft Rock, ambient textures—always looking for the right sound to match the story. 

Themes That Matter

I write about what matters: the land, the people, the journey. You’ll hear themes of history, relationships and the elemental forces that shape us— faith, hope and love, earth, wind and fire. I try to keep things real, with a touch of Scottish soul. 

Looking Ahead

As I continue to shape my sound and build my catalogue, I’m passionate about creating music that’s both personal and universal. I draw inspiration from the landscapes of Scotland, the stories passed down through generations, and the rhythms of everyday life. Whether I’m writing about the quiet strength of home, the longing that comes with travel, or the spiritual threads that run through it all, I aim to craft songs that resonate across borders and generations. My work blends Scottish folk traditions with modern acoustic production, and I’m always exploring new ways to honour my roots while reaching listeners around the world. 

Teal Skyline

Teal Skyline is more than a name—it’s a vision. It’s the colour of the sea on a stormy day, the horizon that calls you forward, the blend of tradition and innovation. It’s where my music lives, and where I hope you’ll find something that speaks to you.

Thanks for being here. Whether you’re streaming a song, reading the lyrics, or just exploring the story—I’m glad we’ve crossed paths.

On The Road

We have really enjoyed singing live over the summer.  Highlights included singing at various Scottish locations and meeting some lovely people from all over the world.  It has been great to be out on the road and get some in person feedback. We've enjoyed sharing some laughs and some precious moments where people said they were emotionally touched through our songs. It's really made all the hard work worth it!
