Peter Butler - Managing Director

Peter has been an acoustic guitar player for more years that he cares to admit. Having been inspired by Paul Simon's version of Anji on the Sounds of Silence album, he went on to become an accomplished fingerstyle player with a repetoire that includes ragtime, blues, traditional and contmporary folk music and a few surprises.

Peter bought Et Cetera in January 2006 and intends to continue growing the business by offering the best products at a competitive price, supported by people who really know what they are doing. You can hear Peter here.
