Marti Pellow Reflects on His Career and Celebrates 60th Birthday with New Tour
Marti Pellow, the former frontman of Wet Wet Wet, celebrated his 60th birthday this year and remains deeply passionate about his music career. Known for his cheeky smile and chart-topping hits like ‘Love is All Around,’ Pellow is embarking on a nationwide arena tour to celebrate the 30th anniversary of this iconic song. Despite reaching an age where many might consider slowing down, he views his vocation as more than just a job—it’s his passion and motivation. Raised in a hardworking family with parents who held dreams of their own, Pellow’s musical inspiration came early from his mother. Though Wet Wet Wet, formed in 1982, split permanently in 2017, Pellow continues to perform solo and embraces new challenges as long as he maintains a supportive fan base. He acknowledges the hardships fame brought, including struggles with addiction, but remains committed to his craft. His story is one of dreaming big and persevering, using his talents to reach global audiences. With a new album ‘The Game’ and a tour kicking off soon, Pellow expresses gratitude for the opportunity to keep doing what he loves and a desire for ‘two lives’ to enjoy it all more fully.
