Picture this: a whimsical composer from the bonnie lands of Scotland, crafting symphonies for grand ensembles. My workshop? A cozy home studio filled with the delightful murmur of instruments awaiting their moment in the spotlight. It’s not just about the notes; it’s about weaving tales through sound. You’ve got stories to share, inspiration to ignite—let your creativity run wild like a runaway fiddle tune!

Siobhan Dyson is a one-woman creative powerhouse who loves nothing more than juggling her many passions for music and filmmaking—sometimes literally, if you count the number of instruments she's mastered. As a composer, musician, filmmaker, and performer, Siobhan has turned self-teaching into an art form. She's taught herself to play an impressive range of instruments, from the piano and cello to the violin, tin whistle, and glockenspiel. You could say she's a one-woman orchestra—if that orchestra also had a serious addiction to trying out new instruments, like the recorder and a brass something-or-other that’s next on her hit list.

Her creative journey really kicked off at The Royal Conservatoire of Scotland, where she decided that just making music wasn’t enough—she had to create films to go with it. With little more than a dream and a dash of “how hard can it be?” Siobhan jumped headfirst into filmmaking with her first project, "Playing with Myself." Since then, she’s been on a roll, producing quirky and captivating short films that are as much a showcase of her music as they are of her sheer stubbornness to do everything herself.

Siobhan’s approach to creativity is all about getting her hands dirty (hopefully not literally, though she wouldn’t rule it out). She loves building things from scratch and takes a special kind of joy in knowing that the final product is 100% her own creation. Whether she’s composing, filming, acting, or directing, Siobhan is an all-rounder who’s passionate about every project she tackles—especially if it means she gets to add another instrument to her ever-growing collection.






She also loves to draw!

Most of her covers for scores and parts are hand drawn by Siobhan. She also loves drawing her own album covers. She has been drawing the most unusal things too! What she loves doing is combining words, creating a new word and seeing what she come up with! Here are a few examples:

This bad boy was actually a typo on an amazon website. The colour was supposed to be mint green but ended up saying Mint Greet. She decided to draw a mint (edible plant) greeting (scottish word for crying). 

Pleach came from the same website, obviously trying to say peach. She decided to make a pink leech. 

The final one is one her friend Ellie asked her to do. Siobhan decided to combine her (Ellie)  last name with her favourite colour. Ending up as blerry, deciding to create a bloody cherry.
