Pete Morton

Ukrainian Community Centre, 14 Royal Terrace, Edinburgh EH7 5AB

EFC is very pleased to welcomew back to the club Pete Morton who was last with us in May 2017. Pete is a dynamo - a folk singer-songwriter with a wealth of great self-penned songs and a remarkable singing voice. A compelling and energetic performer whose songs have been described as an unruly mix of humour, politics, love and social comment wrapping their way around the folk tradition. Songs like Another Train (popularised in no small part by The Poozies) and When We Sing Together (great chorus!) have become modern folk standards and Pete's performances of them and many others are a joy to behold.

Not only impressive but a revelation (Guardian).

A writer who manages to express everything, from the highly personal to the truely international (R2 magazine).

An independent spirit, an old school troubadour he continues his merry niche (fRoots Magazine).

Pete is probably best known for writing Another Train but that is just the very tip of the iceberg (FATEA Magazine).
