“Jessica Cox doesn’t play the cello, she wields it!” (Union Chapel)
With a passion for all things musical I’m embracing the kaleidoscopic musical spectrum that is the rich life of being a freelance musician. Whether performing ‘Good Vibrations’ with Brian Wilson or ‘Do(ing) Nothing’ creating arrangements for The Specials I am lucky to be able to say I enjoy my job!
