Pete Lawrie Reveals Dates For February 2011 UK Shows & Tickets

Pete Lawrie has announced details of shows for February 2011 following the release of his second EP 'In The End', which was released last month on November 1st. The EP is a further taster of his forthcoming debut album which is due to be released in early 2011 and follows the release of his debut single 'All That We Keep' earlier this year.
Penny Lane born and Penarth bred Pete Lawrie is quickly becoming the surest bet for the next big British success story, picking up accolades and recommendations by an ever-expanding legion of fans across the UK. His eclectic debut EP, ‘All That We Keep’ picked up hefty rotation and session performances on national radio, and with gigs already selling-out in London and his native Wales, it’s an almightily impressive introduction to this intriguing young voice.
Lawrie blames his parents for his idiosyncratic tastes in music and for the passion in his songwriting. His mother plays the oboe in an opera, his father makes woodwind instruments, and his grandfather played on the original recording of ‘Strawberry Fields Forever’ by The Beatles.
Raised listening to the sounds of Stevie Wonder, Pink Floyd, Elton John and The Beatles, Pete’s recalls that childhood summer family drives across the South of France were deeply rewarding musical journeys. Similarly to his debut EP, ‘In The End’ features three more golden examples of the broadness of Pete’s song writing. His melody-driven southern soul draws upon bittersweet blues, gospel, and country, all capped by his rough-hewn vocal.
Pete Lawrie will play the following UK shows in February and March 2011
26th The Deaf Institute, Manchester
27th Rescue Rooms, Nottingham
28th The Louisiana, Bristol
1st The Hope, Brighton
