Born in Tooting, London. Pierre's family moved to Deal, Kent in 1991. Aged 11, he found an old beat-up classical guitar in the cellar and has been picking and strumming guitars ever since! In 2006, he joined musical forces with Luton singer/songwriter, Bessie Sayce. Together they formed The Dealers and co-wrote their first album: 'Listen...' which won them the title of "Best Unsigned Acoustic Act in Britain." The duo won Rochesters 'Folk Idol' competition which helped establish their name as professional songwriters in Kent. They lived in, and toured the country for 2 years in a motor home, until Bessie decided to settle down in Kings Lynn.
In October 2010, Pierre decided to end The Dealers and is now pursuing a solo career. Occasionally joined by singer/songwriter, Keith James (Nick Drake tour & The Great Canadian Songbook) & guitarist, Peter Gazey (Tim Edey Band) With a new album and European tour on the cards, 2012 promises to be a year to look out for Pierre Vincent.
