Currently based in Nashville, OLIVER PIGOTT is a singer/songwriter, musician, and actor. He's written hundreds of songs in his career, toured and recorded across Europe and North America, and acted on both stage and screen. Oliver's time in the entertainment business has seen him as a frontman for projects of varying genres, from folk/pop to country, electronic, Americana, soul, and rock. He's worked with industry luminaries like Nick Tauber (Thin Lizzy, UFO), Doc McKinney (The Weeknd, Esthero), and Dean McTaggart (Wynonna Judd, Amanda Marshall) and recorded in premier studios, including Abbey Road in London, England, and CBC Studios in Toronto, Canada.
Oliver appeared as a finalist, alongside his brother Sebastian, on the closing season of Canadian Idol. The two went on to perform and record internationally as The Pigott Brothers, writing songs for the CBC Gemini award-winning TV series "Being Erica." Oliver's original music has also been showcased in many feature films including "Lost Angels" which went on to win awards in Best Feature Film Soundtrack and Best Original Score at film festivals across the USA.
In Jan. 2021, Oliver moved his family to the USA. Today, he spends his time raising his twin sons, teaching music to youth & adults, and collaborating with musicians in Nashville. Having spent the last year and a half working on his first album, Oliver’s debut US single will be released this fall. The single was produced by Billboard record producer and Grammy-accredited songwriter Clarence Jey and mixed by 2x Grammy award-winning Brandon Bell.
