Originally self-taught, and having played guitar for 7 years, it comes as a surprise that Peter Campbell has only been on the music scene for under a year. Playing at every open mic and gig he could find from the ripe age of 18. His distinct acoustic style mixes well with heartfelt, youthful lyrics and his recently released EP was referred to as “telling tales of naivety and heartbreak” Almost a perfect reflection of this 19 year olds original songs, Peter has been compared to the likes of Ed Sheeran and Damien Rice though he makes a distinct point to make his music his own. Having already supported big artists in the industry such as Charlie Simpson and fresh from the release of his debut EP ‘Love Lost’ , Peter has high hopes and is certainly an artist to look out for on the music scene!
