Award-winning guitarist Pete Price will perform at Winmarleigh House in Warrington on Friday, 27 November. The Warrington Guardian reports that The Guardian has described him as an 'acoustic blues virtuoso'.

Born and raised in Warrington and still living in Thelwall, Mr Price began playing guitar at the age of 12 but only turned professional in his 40s. He has since toured extensively across the UK, Europe and North America. Last year, he received an award at the Rory Gallagher Festival in Donegal for his services to music in Ireland. He performs acoustic guitar interpretations of folk and country blues alongside jazz, Latin and world music, and also teaches music in the Warrington area.

Mr Price said the hometown show has become a tradition and that he is fortunate to have fans who travel from all over Europe to attend. He described his loyal audience as what makes the night special, consisting of both people from the Warrington area and 'friendly faces from far and wide'.
