As a child, Pete was taught
by his mother to really "listen" to music, not just
hear it. This sparked a musical adventure of heart and mind that would
define his life.
At the age of seven, Pete was given his first guitar. He wrote his
first song and, for months, he sang his song and strummed until the
family decided it was time for lessons!
Pete was not inspired by his first teachers. But then he found the
right teacher in Rick Staples who was able to keep him interested
long enough to teach him the fundamentals.
From there Pete taught himself specialising in six and twelve
string acoustic guitar. He writes, arranges and produces all
of his own songs.
As with many gifted artists, Pete's music cannot be categorised because
it encompasses many and varied styles. It is a blend ranging
from folk, pop, rock, prophetic, commercial and classical to deep
meditation pieces.
Each album is a journey unto itself. All, however,
have a common thread of touching and opening the heart. Inspiring
joy and uplifting the spirit are the gifts of Pete's music.
