Peter Lavender: News

A big, warm thank you to all who attended Friday night's performance at Life Alive. The atmosphere could not have been better. The audience was wonderful.

Hoping to play there again soon. Loved the room and loved singing without a PA...felt so intimate. A very cozy place for a Summer evening in September.

Thanks again for being there.

September 7th I'll be doing a solo show at Life Alive a very cool organic cafe in Lowell. (see the calendar for details)

Hope to see you there.

Sometimes life throws you a few punches and you hope for some kind of sign to get you through. For me that sign came in the form of a Big Papi homerun ball that left his bat and found it's way into my outstretched hand. 36,000 Fenway Faithful and I'm the one who caught the ball. It's all gonna be just fine. Go Red Sox!

"We're hard pressed to feeling it's now or never afraid to think it might be never now."

Ah, well...

Just booked two shows at the Brew'd Awakening. Check the calendar for details.

If you were lucky enough to attend Friday night's show at Brew'd Awakening, you caught a glimpse of a major talent and all around nice guy, San Diego's Lee Coulter. I haven't been this impressed since the first time I saw Jonatha Brooke play at Christopher's in Porter Square fifteen or so years ago. Check him out at leecoulter.com.

It was great to break back into performing in front of a wonderful audience of friends and family. Hopefully, there will be more dates coming.

Just booked my first show at the Brew'd Awakening on Market Street in Lowell. Click calendar dates for more info.

Many thanks to anyone who purchased a copy of Back to Normal. Passed the hundred mark over the weekend.

The April edition of Metronome is out. Cool page and a half interview. Pick it up at Newbury Comics.

After a pretty nice review, Metronome asked me to do the cover story and interview for the April edition. Available at Newbury Comics sometime at the end of March. Check it out!

Peter Lavender returns with his first solo CD project, Back to Normal. A heartfelt collection of nine beautifully crafted songs, Back to Normal is an acoustic rock tapestry harking back to the confessional songwriters of the early 70's.

Several years in the making, this collection of songs will remind us all just how much we should be willing to remember and how much more we should be willing to forget.
