Since releasing his debut album ‘Little Giant’ to critical acclaim, Roo Panes has racked up in excess of 350 million plays on Spotify and over 28+ million views on Youtube. He has been described by Uncut as a ‘Britfolk pin up’ whose music ‘taps a deep well of folk heritage.’ Q Magazine said Panes finds ‘a positive message in thoughts best left in the dark of night’. A new phase of life and songwriting has taken shape through 2021 and led to a trio of releases including ‘Childhood’, an effortless beauty that stirs feelings of adolescence and family. Swelling with honesty, hope and universal truths, his latest album The Summer Isles has seen a sold out run of shows across the UK and Europe and a set at Glastonbury and The famous Minack Theatre in Cornwall.
