The last few years have been without doubt the most amazing, eye opening, terrifying, hilarious, devastating, glorious times in British singer-songwriter Pete Lawries life... Creating what is best described as beautiful songs with emotional melodies that you can hang your heart on, Lawries life has been far from a walk in the park. Born in Liverpool and raised in Wales, Lawrie's husky voice evokes the likes of Ray Lamontagne, David Gray and Pete Murray.

"Screaming neighbors, evictions,Near death exprience,bedroom studios, rising damp, drummers living in toilets, broken hearts, broken arms,muggings,many foreign shores.Lost luggage, lost friends, fifteen flats, new love, old love, panic attacks,four day benders, festivals, headaches, good times, bad times, sore throats and music. Always music.

I have some photos and a few tired anecdotes to pull from the rubble, but more importantly, I have some songs and a few of my best friends still standing. We form a band of sorts. There is no continuos theme, or grand concept to my writing.At least not one I planned for.

Whether its writing songs on stringed instruments and bellowing into a microphone with my best friends, or cutting and pasting old records into a laptop in the corner of a bedroom/ tourbus somewhere, its all music and I am endlessly grateful to be spending almost all of my time consuming or creating it. There is nothing I love more and no genre I cant find some joy in.

music was my first love.............."
