Pete Canter is an accomplished jazz saxophonist, upright bass player and flautist and a composer of original jazz and contemporary music. His jazz repertoire draws upon swing, bebop and latin jazz standards and originals.

Pete first played on the 1980s London jazz scene, then in Wales during the 1990s, before moving to the Southwest in 2001. He has established himself on the local jazz scene and further afield as a fine saxophone player, composer and band leader responsible for a string of creative projects. Pete has recorded several well received jazz albums and has played at major U.K. festivals including Cheltenham and Teignmouth Jazz Festivals.

Pete is a Member of the Incorporated Society of Musicians and a composer member of the Performing Rights Society, and tonight will be joined by James Clemas on keyboards, Marcus Vergette on double bass and our own Eddie Kingdom on drums.
