Now on Youtube in all its felt glory!
Very pleased to have learned that my score for Mhairi Calvey‘s short film Gaslight has been nominated for 12 awards including Best Original Score by the Idyllwild International Festival 2021 in California, US
…especially since Roger Taylor is on the Grand Jury!
I’m really excited that my Patreon site has now gone live. Lots of content coming soon!

Now on general release
Earwigger (Lockdown comedy short) from Syd Heather on Vimeo.
November also saw a bit of change of pace in that I added strings to Amy Turk’s fantastic new single ‘And So, Here We Are’ which was released on Friday.
I was joined by my sister Bex as well as the fine cellist Kirsten Jenson
Hope you enjoy it.
I was tasked by Rob Lewis to arrange Paul Mealor‘s fantastic ‘Wherever You Are’ which was originally written for the Military Wives Choir. As a bonus, we also decided to arrange Howard Blake’s ‘Walking in the Air’. Taking a more chamber approach (lockdown!) I scored both for similar forces: piano, harp, strings, brass along with various percussion.
Both are sung by the fabulous Cai Thomas and will be released on the Rubicon Classics Label on 5th December 2020.
Recorded during lockdown, we asked Pete Whitfield and the Up North Session Orchestra to record the strings, with Amy Turk on harp, and Graeme Flowers on trumpets and flugel. Julien Brocal and Rob Lewis on piano and piano/choir duties respectively. The fabulous choir St Thomas-on-The Bourne in Farnham where Cai originally learned to sing also join for the Mealor.
Sneak Preview here
