Future King of Rhyl and frontman of 1980’s indie rockers The Alarm, Mike Peters has announced three shows for October and November this year.
Writing songs with passion and skill, his Dylan-esque lyrics with a blend of punk anger make Mike Peters a folk/roots performer in his own right. Leading The Alarm throughout the world to 14 Top 50 singles, six successful albums, packed out venues, critical acclaim, he has earnt a very loyal following.
Starting out in early 1980’s The Alarm scored their first chart hit with the rousing “68 Guns" which made the Top 20 in September 1983. Another hit was “Where Were You Hiding When The Storm Broke” before the release of their debut album ‘Declaration’, which went straight into the Top Five within it’s first week of release.
Several albums later The Alarm split up in 1991, Mike went on to persue a solo career, recording new music and participating in various projects with other artists. He also remastered the entire back catalogue of The Alarm and maintained the band’s official website, his work giving him a unique relationship with his many fans.
After a personal brush and an eventual recovery from Cancer, Mike Peters is still touring strong with three UK shows scheduled for October and November later this year.
Mike Peters will play the following UK dates:
October 2010
