With Support from



Kevin Pearce



"Pearce's delivery, emotional yet mellow, will invite some obvious comparisons to Nick Drake, but it's a comparison Pearce can bear, as the material here is of such quality" - Acoustic Magazine



Unlike most who would put voice to a music that ascends the skies all the while casting anxious glances back at the retreating piano keys, Pearce kisses the clouds and soars onwards before descending to alight on one chosen note so golden as to cause him to languish a while before leaving...



There is no finer singer on the Scene today.
