STEVE PILGRIM BAND

Steve Pilgrim and his star studded band return to Thornton Hough Village Club. Steve is an artist and musician with over 25 years global touring experience. Starting out as a drummer with Liverpool 'Bandwagon' band The Stands (alongside bands like The Coral and The Zutons), Steve went on to play with John Power and Cast. As a solo artist and singer-songwriter he?s produced 6 studio albums (his latest, Let The Love Be Found released earlier this year), receiving the praise of fellow musicians and critics alike. The material sits proudly in the song-writing idiom of the acoustic folk/pop artists of the 60s while exploring the challenges of living and loving in the 21st century. Steve?s songs are simultaneously celebratory and melancholy, intimate and honest, bringing into focus the struggles we all face and the humility that unites us. Over the last 18 years has been touring as part of Paul Wellers band, providing vocal, acoustic and drums, and sharing the stage with the likes of Noel Gallagher, Johnny Marr, Corrine Bailey-Rae, Tom Jones, The Who and Kelly Jones (to name a few). ?When Steve Pilgrim takes to the stage its like a spell has been woven. His voice is nothing short of perfect and although many know him as Paul Weller?s drummer, his guitar abilities sincerely match his songwriting skill? ?Steve Pilgrim is the music industry?s best kept secret. He?s an exceptional songwriter? Dylan Jones ? GQ Magazine ?One of the great understated modern songsmiths. I love Pilgrims voice, his lyrics, his sense of melody. I hope people get to hear his music, it?s really something special? Paul Weller ?A soulful ache of a voice and a brave wide-open lyrical stance?? Rob Fitzpatrick - Word Magazine
