- Bio: Born Portland, Oregon in 1987, Peter is an impossibly youthful musician/composer who has played and toured with numerous groups in Portland and has established himself as a regular session musician for numerous recording studios, adding violin, banjo, musical saw, mandolin etc to artists such as M. Ward, Zooey Deschanel, Dolorean, and many more. As a child he studied classical violin, but over time he has collected many different instruments, learning to play them one by one.
In mid 2007, Peter was invited by some of his heroes, the Danish ensemble Efterklang, to move to Copenhagen and join their live band. And so he dropped his entire life in Portland and moved across the world. Since then, he has released a mini album of solo piano music - “Docile” - on the Swedish label Kning Disk, as well as a full length album of piano and string compositions - “Float” - on Type recordings.
Having honed his craft as teenager playing a supporting role to so many artist-friends, Peter’s main focus is now his own music, and Bella Union debut “Home” reveals him to be a songwriter and musician of astonishing maturity and depth. From the moment the multi-tracked vocals on “Games” invite you into this most alluring of records you know you’re in the presence of something special and unique, as Peter weaves the most captivating of harmonies. “And it’s Alright” draws you further in, gentle guitar arpeggios underpinning a gorgeous, graceful melody as Peter’s vocals caress his evocative words: “Seven shooting stars in one night, the water and sand in our eyesight”. Lyrically, the album is loosely themed around the search for a home, with all the yearning that entails. (less)
