Peter Gill has performed all over Europe in various of his musical guises. He is as equally at home creating a soft background atmosphere ideal for wedding receptions, dining or cocktails where he might induldge you with his gentle vocals singing those jazz standards that are synonymous with cool as he is rocking up the evening with his fast and furious boogie woogie.
Peter released his first solo CD in January 1999. Entitled 'Simply. . . Peter Gill' it highlights the lighter side of his music such as Frank Sinatra's 'Witchcraft', Nina Simone's, 'My Baby Just Cares For Me' and Erroll Garner's 'Misty'. It was as direct result of the release of this CD that Sony Invited Peter to play for them in Seville, Spain in February 1999.
Peter also has his own Jazz Trio - perfect for a slightly fuller sound, and still ideal for creating that perfect background atmosphere.
In April 1999 after a nationwide search for the U.K.'s best boogie woogie piano players, Peter and fellow piano player Adrian Dixon opened Birmingham's Jam House along with co-owner Jools Holland and his band. Peter and Adrian thrilled the capacity crowd with their high energy 'duelling pianists' routine and have subsequently gone on to create a national excitement with their stage and after dinner show.
If you want the best in piano based live music, whether background solo piano, a jazz trio, a rock 'n' roll band, dance band or a piano/vocalist who can do it all, then Peter Gill is the answer.Professional and experienced there are a few busier musicians and none who give more to a performance.
Locality is never a problem as Peter is free to travel anywhere in the world.
