Overview

The pure sound of a wood acoustic guitar and soft rock vocals without the "karaoke noise" in the background. I specialize in love songs, fun songs and ballads selected from the ’60s to today. As the name implies, I project a feeling to your audience that will touch their hearts and minds. "Music is what feelings sound like".

Great Find For My Father’s 85th Birthday

Peter was a perfect fit for our party. He entertained guests aging from 4 years old to 85. His classic music allowed us all to sing along and dance when. He was also very good at feeling out when it was appropriate to sing quietly and when to get us excited. He is also a very nice guy and was very professional. I would highly recommend Peter for any event!!

What to expect

Acoustic light rock music that fills the soul, makes you smile and delights the heart. The simplicity of a solo acoustic singer/songwriter is perfect for that intimate setting where delightful background music is essential to bring harmony to your event.

About

I started playing electric guitar when I was 12 and was part of a 3 person band called Contemporary Sound Complex. (yes, it was kind of different :-)) This lasted for a couple years until I discovered the delight of acoustic light rock/folk musicians like James Taylor and John Denver. The rest as they say is history. I stayed with my electric acoustic music and have loved sharing this style of music for quite a while now. I have played in duo's and solo.

Additional booking notes

I am well equipped for just about any indoor or outdoor setting.
