Peter Gill is quite simply regarded as one of the U.K.'s most versatile and exciting piano/vocalists.
His boogie woogie talents were pinpointed in 1999 when he was asked to co-open Jool's Holland's Jam House in Birmingham. In that same year SONY asked him to travel with them to Seville in Spain to entertain them with his cool cocktail jazz following the release of his first album and then he was commissioned to create his first rock 'n' roll and 'Duelling Pianists' show for theatres.
In the Millenium Year American Express approached Peter to bring a show band to London's Grosvenor House Hotel to entertain their top clients, this spawned the Peter Gill Dance Band - a strictly 'for special occasions only' band with a line up of musicians taken from the country's 'most gifted' list.
Peter is effectively on constant national and international tour and has been for over ten years. Performing as a solo artist, with his renowned jazz trio, with the 'Duelling Pianists' show and more recently with the nation's favourite rock 'n' roll band STATE 51 in the theatre show 'Let The Good Times Roll'.
He has performed for and with some of the country's most notable names including Shirley Bassey, Catherine Jenkins, Brian May, Mike d'Abo, Jools Holland, Steve Coogan and Anita Dobson.
As well as producing many successful recordings Peter has written articles and books and appears regularly on national television and radio both in his capacity as a musician and as an author and historian.
Peter is also a committed fundraiser, in particular for the Bristol Children's Hospital where his son Ethan was treated successfully on two separate occasions.
His past exploits have involved, the release of a charity single, bringing together the cream of musicians for charity concerts, jumping out of aircraft and running the London Marathon, he is currently in training to cycle from Lands End to John O'Groats.
