Aside from hotels, conferences and parties he has also played at Ronnie Scott's, 606 club, Pizza express Dean Street, The National Theatre and The Jazz Cafe.

Until it's closure in February this year KDC was a regular feature at the Soho Pizzeria in Beak Street where his mixture of Jazz standards, TV Themes and RnB classics drew an appreciative audience.

One of his current projects is solo piano repertoire - Music from the great depression where he performs compositions by the great English stride pianist of the day - Billy Mayerl, and from across the Atlantic, George Gershwin and his masterpiece - Rhapsody In Blue.
