Pete Higgins in Coleman Centre

Pete Higgins come to the Coleman Centre this Saturday night.

He writes music because he has to. Once a melody materialises in his head, he has to capture it and mould it or it will consume his thoughts for the entire day. The results of this constant melodic moulding can be heard in his debut single ‘Circadian Rhythm & Blues’ - the title track from his forthcoming debut album.

A native of Boyle and now based in Galway cit y, Pete has written music as long as he has been able to play music. His songs are rooted in an acoustic foundation and build in l ayers to create a sound that ser ves the melody. Lyrical inspiration is derived from the always present and ever changing Atlantic Ocean.

He said:- “I see the ocean ever y day from my bedroom window and it changes colour and texture continuously, it ebbs and flows always remind me of the ups and downs of modern day life”. The daily strive to be a well-adjusted adult in today’s world also plays a l arge role in his lyrics. “So many songs have been written about l ove - the only way to not add to the many clichés out there is to speak honestly.

Saturday 16th June at 8.30pm, tickets are €12.00.
