Pete Morton is a singer and entertainer who is often referred to as an old time troubadour. He delivers an unruly freewheeling mix of storytelling, comedy and song that weaves it's way around the folk tradition. His current show 'The Ghost of a Sailor's talking blues' is a joyful ramble through time (not necessarily in the right order), in the style of the talking blues, as well as unleashing popular singalong chorus from the last 400 years. Read about the new show here: www.petemorton.com/talking-blues


Pete is known for his songwriting skills. He has recorded a wealth of material over the years. His final two albums 'The Golden Thread' and 'Fair Freedom' are available here.

His most famous song 'Another Train' has been performed and recorded by various artists. Here is Sally Barker's version.

With his powerful, euphonious voice storytelling and compelling stage presence he continues his merry niche, singing songs and entertaining with a funloving and approachable style.
