“Petty Chavez write songs rooted in tradition but with lyrics that reflect their lives as 21st century musicians. With two strong and distinct voices that mesh in lush harmonies, there’s something going on here worth your investigation. “

— Nic Harcourt, KCSN 88.5 FM, Los Angeles DJ

 

A British bloke and a Filipina gal walk into a folk music conference... it’s no joke, it’s Petty Chavez!

We are an acoustic singer-songwriter duo: Simon Petty (English band Minibar, Pete Yorn ) and Celia Chavez (backup singer/percussion with Enrique Iglesias) and we are excited for our first visit to the FAI Conference. Our first full-length recording, One Last Look at the Stars, will be released in 2020.

 

RIYL: Nick Drake, Simon & Garfunkel, Head and the Heart, Civil Wars

 

We'd love to be a part of your PGS, either by showcasing our songs or supporting other artists.
