WHERE'S PIERS?
“The poetic, the experimental and the truthful”. From the beginning, the state of being immersed within a world has defined Piers. He was partially deaf until he had an operation at six; which, combined with a case of ADHD, developed a rich inner world and imagination within him that carries through even today. At sixteen he was encouraged by a teacher to explore the world of poetry, which led him to university to study English Literature. However, the traditional poet’s route of getting published wasn’t for him, and instead he decided that his path lay in entwining his words with his passion for music. Through the process of releasing an album of instrumental music last Autumn (under the alias Dreamwader), he then spent time developing his skills as a composer. So, when it came to working on this project he could combine these skills with his poetic exploration of the internal and the external to develop songs that were shaped by his curiosity for the experimental and the truthful. In December, he made his debut performance at the OnTrack Showcase at the Roundhouse in Camden which he used as a springboard to push into the new year, with a headline gig at Powerplant (Camden) and then a supporting gig at The Star in Shoreditch. More recently he kicked off this summer with a supporting slot at The Macbeth (Hoxton). Since January, he has been putting the hours in in the studio to bring you his debut songs over the course of this summer, culminating in a much anticipated album this October.
