Peyoti is an international artist who has composed, produced & performed his music extensively throughout Europe, north & south Americas, SE Asia and South Africa.
Although he writes in different styles, he's especially known for his vibrant, Manu Chao-esque 'world-beats' & Latin flavored sound, fusing elements of diverse world genres with a contemporary, popular sensibility.
He has appeared at festivals including Glastonbury (UK), Rockwave (Greece), Colours of Ostrava (Czech Republic) & Woodstock (Poland) to name but a few, with audiences numbering 20,000+ in many cases. His music has been played on Radio stations all across Europe, most notably BBC regional and national stations (UK). TV appearances also include: England and Eastern-Europe with a special appearance on national TV station RTV (Slovenia) during peak-viewing time. He has performed alongside or been billed with such prestigious artists as: Manu Chao, Iggy Pop, Buena Vista Social Club, Nigel Kennedy, Gogol Bordello and Portugal's very own Mariza.
Under his project name, 'Peyoti for President' he has received favorable 4 / 5 star reviews in music press and newspapers including: The Independent (top recommended summer download), Rolling Stone Magazine (4 starts for debut album) and many more across Europe, especially UK and Germany.
His original compositions have appeared on TV and film. Notably Netflix, Gentefied (TV series), The Impact (feature length film) and InterRail Documentary.
He is a multi-gifted artist who has achieved recognition as a performer, composer and producer. Peyoti regularly produces music from his studios in Monchique, Portugal including bespoke music for sync licensing. During 2022/23 songs were written whilst spending time in Mexico, Thailand & Portugal. Tracks combine a rich fusion of Mexican 'gunslingers' desert-swagger in a dance / world-beat style that aims to take the listener on an exotic journey to the Mescaline fueled 'Peyote-Cactus' dreamland.
He's always open to collaborations with mix engineers & producers. Likewise, record labels by which to release the new material are also open to presentation.
