Musical artist
Andrew "Roo" Panes (born 8 June 1988) is an English folk singer-songwriter and model. He has released three EPs: Once (2012), Weight of Your World (2012), and Land of the Living (2013). His début LP Little Giant was released in Autumn 2014, with the leading single "Tiger Striped Sky" previously released on 23 June 2014. His follow-up album Paperweights came in 2016. His third album Quiet Man arrived in 2018, with a deluxe edition released in the following year. His latest studio album was released on 24 March 2023 with the vinyl record becoming available on 5 May 2023.[1] Panes plays a 12-string acoustic guitar. Introspective lyrics and a band of string-players contribute to a genre of classical folk music.[2]
Panes gained a wide audience in 2012 after participating in a campaign for Burberry as he joined actress Gabriella Wilde as Burberry label's new campaign star.[3] The contract also included recording music for Burberry Acoustic and modelling.
Background
Panes comes from a musical background. His grandmother was a classical pianist, and his mother studied performing arts at Guildhall School of Music and Drama and then worked in theatre.[4] His twin sister is a photographer, and his older sister is an illustrator who has developed and designed the artwork for all of his albums.[5]
His 2012 song “Know Me Well”--released with the Little Giant album (2014)--was used over the end credits of the Christmas special of the BBC comedy series Cuckoo (the final episode of Series 2).
Panes received the nickname 'Roo' after falling into a river as a child. It was also an homage to a Winnie-the-Pooh character who met a similar fate while playing a game called Poohsticks.
