    Pete Roe confirmed for Brighton Komedia, 8th June

    Saturday, April 17th, 2010

    We are delighted to welcome Pete Roe back to Brighton after his wonderful set at Stanmer House last year. Tickets are on sale now at www.wegottickets.com/willkommen for just £6.50.

    Pete Roe is a gifted singer/songwriter, best known as the pianist and guitarist in Mercury Award nominee Laura Marling’s band. Having toured with Marling several times, opened for Mumford & Sons too many times to remember and worked as guitar tech for the Maccabees, Roe is now stepping in to the limelight and releasing a solo EP through Communion Records in June, the label run by Kev from Cherbourg and Ben from Mumford & Sons.

    His sound fuses the keen melodic ear and lyricism of his aforementioned friends with the guitar skills of Bert Jansch and John Martyn. His unique style sees complex melody, bass lines and percussive tapping simultaneously weaving in and out of each other and his soothing voice sits perfectly on top.
