“Beatty’s debut album, with its catchy melodies and thoughtful lyrics, should afford him a free pass to the current contemporary acoustic folk coterie… reverie is probably the best term to describe the mood its variety of musical blooms and the gentle cadences of his voice craft evoke, you should plant him in your garden and see how he grows.”
Fatea Magazine

Bandcamp ‘New and Notable’
“Indie folk treasure… evokes a sense of wanderlust and introspection [that] resonates profoundly with listeners, touching their hearts and minds.”
Last Day Deaf
“The gentle sways, the intelligent production and the delightful melodies take us on a journey of seemingly endless possibility… a Belle & Sebastian inspiration in the vocal style that connects us with distant evenings flipping vinyls and dreaming of the future. A timeless treat that beckons listens to pause for a moment and take stock of where you are right now.”
Unrecorded
“Like a furry cloak in the middle of a harsh winter… the kind of substance that’s not only compelling but also relatable… charming vocal performance.”
Stereofox
“Tell Me Where To Go is a simmering track with an understated groove that instantly grabs you. Peter’s laidback vocals will bring a smile to your face while its image-laden lyrics will have you thinking… it truly is a song that will transport you.”
York Calling
“Different Flowers is a revelation… the sound of where folk has been and where it is today but it also indicates where it is going, especially when it is left to its own devices, unburdened by the fickle whims of fads or fashion… This is the sound of folk music being allowed to evolve at its own pace.”
Dancing about architecture
“Lovely… Fans of singer-songwriters like Sufjan Stevens, Richard Hawley and Belle & Sebastian should find something to enjoy”
Right Chord Music
“Captivates the listener’s senses… Delicate acoustic tapestries and soothing vocals serve as the foundation, but it’s the dynamic ebb and flow, the unexpected swells and soft lulls… less is undeniably more in this beguiling musical landscape. This is the resolute sound of a solo artist gazing unwaveringly at the horizon, eager to embrace the promise of new frontiers.”
The Big Takeover
“This is warm, this is intimate and this is a shuffle of subtle playing with a bard sitting atop ushering words of wisdom”
