Pete was born in Aurora, Colorado, although he grew up all over the country. He lived in Loveland, Colorado; Boise, Idaho; Beaverton, Oregon; North and South Dakota; even Wichita, Kansas, where he lived for four years. Pete ultimately moved to Seattle in the middle of his fourth grade, where he has been until his recent move to Los Angeles.
The talented songwriter/multi-instrumentalist sings and performs on Guitar, Bass, Piano/Keyboards and Drums.
Pete was the featured local artist of the month on 103.7 "The Mountain," Seattle, WA, in September 2001, was a semifinalist in the Shure National Songwriting Contest 2002, and a featured artist in a VH1-sponsored promotion, to name a few credits to his name.
Pete's goal is to make a great living doing what he loves: continuingly challenge him self to explore his heart, the hearts of others, and express this through his music, and in the process sell tons of records and go on world tours.
What does he want people to feel or enjoy about his music? In his words, "Music has made such a tremendous impact on my life. Its powers of healing, awakening, and emotional evocation are true magic. It has allowed me to express so many things about what I feel about our world, our society, my heart, and the emotional needs of the youth. I want people to feel whatever they want about it. Just feel it for real."

I love his vocals they are unique and boy he can hit those high notes! The way he plays his guitar, it’s astounding!! We all know Pete isn’t too bad looking!
