Debut album: Sirvival
For the past three years, after a long period as one of the most consistent soulful house DJ-producers in the UK, Sir Piers has been working towards building a career in the Soul, RnB, Uptempo and Pop markets.
The debut Sir Piers album (Sirvival) is a showcase of his most recent work as a commercial Soul and RnB producer. Featuring various celebrated UK & US artists, such as; Natalie Williams, Frank McComb, Kenny Thomas, Monique Bingham, Sean Escoffery, and Level 42, the album has been guaranteed national radio and TV exposure, when released later this year.
Sir Piers has also run his own label (Curious Records) for the past six years, releasing several acclaimed Soulful House records.
As well as releasing the Sirvival album, Sir Piers is currently producing and writing for British soul legend Kenny Thomas and newcomer Chantelle Rowe.
