Pete Green

Pete Green writes and sings about coasts and islands, railways, walking, getting lost, love, whisky, underachievement, and rubbish football. Their work increasingly combines music, poetry and field recordings. Pete's first solo single, Everything I Do is Gonna Be Sparkly, was played on Radio 1 in 2007 and made the sound go funny. Afterwards Pete wrote about that too. When not playing solo they can be found fronting Sheffield indiepop optimists The Sweet Nothings. Pete's most recent release is We're Never Going Home (2016), an album about running away, rivers, wishes, shorelines, lost railways, being halfway through life and still not knowing, and getting wasted on single malt whisky through the night the world ends. Pete's poetry has appeared in various journals including Caught By The River and The Fenland Reed, and their pamphlet Sheffield Almanac is published by Longbarrow Press: it's a 36-page love poem about relocation, regeneration, rivers and rain.
