Pierre Vincent, (formally, THE DEALERS...) grew up in Deal, KENT. Aged 11, he found an old beat up Spanish guitar in the cellar and has been strummin' and picking that thing ever since...
... After numerous bands, and dead end jobs, In January 2006, Pierre joined forces with singer/songwriter and bassist, Bessie Sayce and formed The Dealers. Giving up the comfort of their rented home to live in a 24ft Winnebago they went on to perform in over 300 venues across the UK & Scotland. They won "Best Unsigned Acoustic Act in Britain" - Playmusic Magazine and dubbed "Kents busiest acoustic act" - K-City.
In a very short space of time, Pierre & Bessie were headlining festivals as diverse as Rochester Sweeps to Lounge On the Farm. Playing venues such as The Barfly, The 12 Bar, Magpies Nest and Notting Hill's legendary Cobden Club as well as supporting the likes of GENO WASHINGTON, THE BATTLEFIELD BAND, WHEELER STREET, JOHN OTWAY, SANDI THOM and THE UKULELE ORCHESTRA OF GREAT BRITAIN.
Their recorded work has received accolades from STEVE KNIGHTLY (Show Of Hands), DAVE COUSINS (The Strawbs) and SPENCER "Keep On Running" DAVIS.
Since THE DEALERS folded in May 2009, Pierre continues to perform in sold out venues in both the UK and France. Joined occasionally by amazingly talented musicians including, Nigel Fiest (LA DOORS) and Gemma Gayner (JD and THE LONGFELLOWS)
Pierre is now in the process of writing his first solo album and organizing a tour of Germany, S. Africa and the USA for 2010.
