Beth Navaro’s country-influenced sound now evolves into something new as she joins forces with singer/songwriters Pete White and Steve Austin.  This disparate trio have been described as a ‘singers collective’ where the sound is about voices, but the song is the star.

Beth’s affection for roots music, Pete’s flair for anthemic melodies and Steve’s love of British and American folk all find their place in the NAVARO mix. The trio share lead vocal duties and combine in ways determined by the song.

In some respects NAVARO follow in the tradition of Crosby, Stills and Nash. Unlike CSN though, the boys voted to name the act after one band member for reasons of brevity and because ‘Beth has a great surname so why not?’
While Beth was working on her debut album Pete was busy recording with double-Grammy winning producer/programmers Andy Wright (Massive Attack/Jeff Beck) and Adrian Hall (Lou Rhodes). Pete played at Glastonbury in 2005 and continues to perform his unique brand of ‘in-your-face’ acoustic balladry as a solo artist.

Steve has fronted many bands and worked with Andy himself along with the producers of June Tabor, The Cure and The Lemonheads.

Pete and Steve met on the vibrant Hertfordshire ‘open-mic’ circuit and were an effective force as a duo before they eventually met Beth Navaro. She was recruiting for band members to help support the release of her debut album. What actually emerged from the resulting rehearsals was a new act with its own sound and its own record deal.
