As a singer songwriter Peter has been playing music since his teenage years in Somerset folk clubs. He enjoyed early success with his pop/rock band Casino touring Europe and the university circuit supporting such bands as Thin Lizzy, Supertramp and 10cc and had an original song in the UK charts.

He's lived the life of a troubadour, busking on the streets of Paris, lived a Hollywood lifestyle staying at the Chateau Marmont and spent several years in New York, then played piano in West End clubs and crooned like Sinatra round the world on cruises and several five star hotels.

As the resident band at The Ritz in London for the last ten years, Peter continues to experience the high life. Living by the sea has inspired many of his recent songs and despite a love of travelling, St Leonards is where he calls home where he is at his 
happiest playing his Gibson 335 or just as likely the clapped out pub piano, to the crowd in his local. 

Peter's repertoire is wide ranging and there are not many tunes that he won't have a go at, though blues is his real passion. He has recently put together a five piece band playing such heroes as Muddy Waters, Etta James and BB King (who signed his guitar when he met him in Memphis) and is adding new material for an album of original blues music.

Musical and computery person (I can compose/record but also recover the files when it crashes).

My fretting hand is full of raw rock guitar riffs whilst my mousing hand clicks out quirky jingles.

Was surrounded by recording and musical equipment in the womb, picked up a guitar in 1983 - am now a jumble of the following:

*Music teacher based around guitars......acoustic, electric, bass.
*Work with song writers to write / record / gig - Abbo, Matt Carpanini, Paul Roberts (of Stranglers past), Amy Tinsley, Matt Culpepper (Creative Music Services).
*Gig guitar / bass and backing vocals in pubs / clubs / functions in various styles from mellow acoustic to chunky funk to widdly rock.
*Computer brain whispers to digital audio workstations.
*Author of Xtreme Guitar tuition book/CD series.

Sometimes I find the time to add to this random collection of tunes.......of course if someone pays me I drop everything and I'm straight on it.

Take on some tunes and help me to sleep at night (well, from 3am to midday-ish). Likings and Repositings etc. spur me on no end. Thanks.
