PETEBOX Performing Live at S2AS Summer Party!



//THePETEBOX
Having toured extensively with the likes of artists as varied as Jay Sean, Foreign Beggars and Diversity and showcasing his unique approach to beatboxing and music creation at many of the countries major festivals and live venues throughout the world, THePETEBOX has carried momentum in full swing over 2011-2012. 

Introducing himself to the world of youtube, his first hd video of his reinterpretation of Pixies classic ‘Where Is My Mind’ went viral, amassing over 2.5 million views and counting and receiving accolades from Blink 182’s bassist Mark Hopper, MTV US and the Pixies themselves who put it on their website.
This has set the foundations for THePETEBOX’s first studio album ‘Future Loops’, which is completed and has been released in a unique way – each track was released as live videos on youtube leading to the official album release in April 2012. 

This ‘live, studio, video’ beatbox album has amassed over 4 million views to date and the videos have been featured on many major blogsites and web content sharing sites. To accompany the album approach, Pete's innovative live set has evolved further still and now features the use of effects, more loopers and a guitar to build layers of vocals into fully crafted tracks, integrating his award winning beatbox skills with the new setup to achieve stunning results.

Despite his hard work on the album, over 2011/12 Pete has played all around the UK, Poland, Ayia Napa, Spain, France, Czech Republic, Ireland, Germany, Russia and Croatia, made a victorious return to Glastonbury, Reading/Leeds and V festivals and his recent UK headline tour saw him pack out shows around the UK and sell out venues in Nottingham and London.
