MILIONI DI PETEMILIONI DI PETE

Founder member of Dexys Midnight Runners, Pete Williams along with guitarist Andy Wellings brings his stunning 2 man show to The Engine Room North ShieldsReflecting on a lifetime of touring and featuring music and stories from his 3 critically acclaimed Albums this promises to be a blisteringly memorable night.  What the press say! Quotes:   “The songs are Damn Good” IGGY POP (BBC 6 Music) “What a fantastic songwriter and singer the man is. We both thought that his first record 'See' was the stand out album of 2012. Pete is a storyteller in his songs, and writes as a mature man who has lived and suffered and loved. The soulfulness that Pete brings to everything that he does is inspiring. He has the passion of a young writer, and the philosophical overview of a wise man." – CHARLIE & CRAIG REID (THE PROCLAIMERS) “For me, it's all about recognising in another brother or sister that same appreciation that another side to this life exists. We can smell each other out. Pete smells good and is a damn fine man and musician.” - RICHARD HAWLEY   “I’m a fan of the great Pete Williams. He tells terrific stories set to beautiful melodies and sung with passion, charisma and heartfelt honesty. He draws me in every time”. - IMELDA MAY Press:  'Roughnecks and Roustabouts' “Pleasingly grizzled, yet groovy” ★★★★ Mojo “His hook-laden tales are the work of a genuine craftsman” Q Magazine Andrew Collins. Broadcaster, presenter Classic F.M. August 2018 H.O.L.L.A.N.D. is literate, acerbic, witty, melodic, conceptual and arguably his best yet. Mark Rubinstein. Sour Jazz NYC. September 2018 “Always putting the song first, consistently as cool as it is warm, successive spins revealing layers and nuance, rewarding the listener." David Stubbs Classic Rock Magazine 8/10 “Like Elvis Costello and Paul McCartney, Williams has the ability to make magic of the mundane.” Max Descharne 4* MOJO “Deeply felt lyrics that aren't afraid to acknowledge the complexities of the human condition” Please could you send me your ticket links by the end of play Thursday latest.
