Together, Lynne and Rob established the publishing company Forton Music in 2008, initially specialising in music for wind instruments, but now including music for strings and solo piano.

As the Dunelm Duo Lynne and Rob have been performing together since their university days, with concerts, weddings, celebrations, events and recording sessions under their belts.
