In this episode, we sit down with legendary Sheffield artist and musician Pete McKee to talk about his journey from growing up on a council estate and playing in bands to becoming one of the city’s most beloved painters. Pete shares how he developed his iconic minimalist style, why he focuses on relatable, nostalgic moments, and how he’s made art accessible for everyone—from £3 prints to large-scale exhibitions. We dive into his memorable projects, collaborations with music legends, and quirky ventures like serving “400 Crisp Butties” in three hours. Plus, we chat about his band The Everly Pregnant Brothers, DJ nights, and why pubs are the heart of a community.
