Pete and The PiratesBiography
Pete and The Pirates are an indie rock band from Reading, England. Bright, young commanders of a brand of unique Englishness, their blend of smooth edged punk and pop produces music which is sweet, raw, joyous, melancholic, raucous and tender. The Pirates’ idiosyncratic and endearing song writing puts them somewhere between the Flying Nun band Tall Dwarfs and the wistful reflection of On The Beach-era Neil Young.
The band was formed in 2005 and consists of Tommy Sanders (vocals), Peter Cattermoul (bass/vocals), David Thorpe (guitar), Jonny Sanders (drums) and Peter Hefferan (guitar/vocals).
Recently recorded, their debut 12-track album has been produced by Gareth Parton (The Killers, The Go! Team, The Futureheads and NEiLS CHiLDREN) and is due for release in January.
The bands single ‘Come On Feet’ was released in June 2007 and new single, ‘Knots’ is released on Monday 8th October 2007 on Stolen Recordings. The band have also released two EP’s through Stolen, their debut ‘Get Even’ (sold out, still available on download) and ‘Wait Stop Begin’.
All releases are available through up and coming label, Stolen Recordings, at www.stolenrecordings.co.uk or their Myspace
