Pete has a deep understanding of country music, starting with his first professional job in the music business with a touring country band way back in the ‘70s and ‘80s. Since then, he’s visited (and recorded in) Nashville many times, forging cross-Atlantic links with the contemporary country community. Pete favours classic country stylists, such as Hank Williams, Patsy Cline, Tammy Wynette and George Jones, and guitarists like Glen Campbell, Chet Atkins and Brent Mason.
