Pete & Mila Molinari (la - Us) + Special Guests

About

British singer-songwriter, poet, and recording artist with one of the most quietly decorated careers in contemporary folk and blues. Born in Kent into a large Maltese, Egyptian, and Italian family, Pete cut his teeth playing the folk and blues clubs of New York's East Village before returning home to record his debut with the legendary Billy Childish, released on Damaged Goods Records.

His fourth album, Theosophy, brought in an extraordinary cast: Black Keys frontman Dan Auerbach and guitarist Barrie Cadogan performed on the record, with Grammy-winning producer Tchad Blake and DJ Andrew Weatherall shaping the sound. The accolades that came back were something else entirely: Ray Davies, Bruce Springsteen, Bob Dylan, and Yoko Ono all became vocal admirers. In 2013, Pete stepped onto the stage of London's Royal Festival Hall at the Meltdown Festival to sing "Woman" and "(Just Like) Starting Over" alongside Yoko Ono herself.

His most recent album, Wondrous Afternoon, was recorded in Rome with producer Luca Sapio at the legendary Piero Umiliani Sound Workshop for Blind Faith Records, the Italian independent label that has become his creative home. He is now recording his next LP for Blind Faith, the most ambitious of his career.

Pete is returning to Europe with Mila, Pete's wife, who joins in as a percussionist and backing vocalist. Her work channels the full glamour of Old Hollywood, the Jazz Age, and the Technicolour musicals she grew up worshipping.
