A former resident of Vancouver, Canada, Pete made his first forays into Hollywood after a wildly successful debut at the Montreal Just For Laughs festival.

Pete arrived in the UK a few years ago and quickly became a favourite at London’s renowned Comedy Store. Early into his move here, Pete was invited on Radio 4’s prominent Loose Ends as well as other radio and TV programmes, performed alongside the likes of Stephen Merchant, Stewart Lee and Simon Amstell as part of charity Alert’s peace benefit at the Bloomsbury Theatre in London, and bagged a starring role opposite Ed Byrne is BBC4’s Sex Bombs.

In his hit solo Edinburgh show Naked Pictures of My Life, Pete illustrated the embarrassing developments of his life and how he has reached his ‘happy-apathy’ attitude towards life. This show garnered rave reviews and also bagged him a nomination for one of the most coveted awards in comedy. Check out his press by clicking the link on the left. Since then he has returned to Edinburgh twice with Pete’s On Earth (2010) and Utopian Crack Pipe (2012).

Pete headlines comedy clubs around the world, from New York’s Caroline’s Comedy Club, The Helium Club In Philadelphia, Austin’s Capital Comedy Club, Minneapolis’s Acme Comedy Theater, The Comedy Store in London and Manchester, as well as shows in Dubai, Hong Kong, Japan, Korea, Afghanistan, Guam, Cayman Islands, Germany, Malta, Cyprus, Amsterdam, Ireland and Canada, and many, many more too numerous to mention.
