Singer & Guitarist based in Teesside.  I play acoustic covers of well known songs - old & new.  My style is relaxed, ambient, acoustic music - perfect for restaurants, bars, drinks receptions, weddings or any event where people want to chat but appreciate the atmosphere live music creates...

Born into a really musical family, I've always loved music!!  My biggest influence has got to be Suzanne Vega!

Hope you enjoy my cover tracks :)

I am a heavy metal and rock music fan, and I have been a musician for thirteen years. I was inspired to become a musician after listening to Metallica songs as well as some of  Bob Marley's lyrics in a song called Trenchtown Rock. 'One good thing about music when it hits you feel no pain.'  This inspired me to become a musician as whenever I listen to music or play my keyboard, I am calm and relaxed

PRB (formerly The Pete Rea Band) began life rooted in the grit and swagger of blues-based rock — big riffs, raw energy, and a classic sound. But as the band grew, so did the music. What started as straight-up rock has morphed into something far broader: a restless, alt-rock outfit unafraid to push boundaries and follow songs wherever they want to lead. The new album due out Spring 2026 will demonstrate what that means. 

For PRB, genre is not a limitation. One track might lean into jagged, driving guitars; the next might open up with atmospheric textures, unexpected instrumentation, or a left-field rhythm. The constant is honesty: songs crafted with instinct, not formulas.

This evolution reflects the band’s core belief — that rock music doesn’t need to stay in its lane. PRB embrace experimentation, blending styles and sounds without losing the pulse of what makes a great rock song. PRB has stepped into a space where alternative, indie, and classic influences collide.
