About Peter Wolf Crier and the debut album Inter-Be
Inter-Be is the debut album by Peter Wolf Crier, the Minneapolis-based duo of Peter Pisano and Brian Moen. The album was born on a single summer night when Pisano felt a torrent of creativity after what had felt, to him, like an interminably long dry spell. He shared the songs with Moen, and over the months that followed, at Moen's home, these rough-hewed tunes became what they are now: a confident collection of songs, but deceptive in that their very guts still reflect the thoughts of a man in transition.
Pisano's is not a new songwriting voice. He is best known for being part of the Wars of 1812, an ascendant Wisconsin-bred quartet. Their first album together, Status Quo Ante Bellum, was more than just an album. It was relocation and aspiration and Pisano's lyrical Eden. As the Wars went on hiatus, Pisano continued to hone his craft, keeping his days full as a teacher at a small private school while fine-tuning, at night, the songs that would soon become Inter-Be. Feeling confident in the songs, Pisano approached Moen, a seasoned drummer and engineer best known for his involvement in Laarks and Amateur Love. After being asked to add some percussive elements, Moen added his thundering drum rolls and perfectly timed fills, but he also added something much more: a melodic soundscape that would complete the evolution of the songs. So was born the partnership that is called Peter Wolf Crier.

About the "This Is Not For You." performances
Performed in a private location, kept secret until purchase of admission, "This is Not For You." was a unique blend of intimate musical performance and site-specific theatre. Co-conceived by director Jeremey Catterton who won “Best Rock-Opera ‘07” for his staging of Fort Wilson Riot’s Idigaragua, this new musical collaboration tantalized savvy fans of theatre and indie-music, alike.
The performance’s events and narrative were inspired by Peter Wolf Crier’s debut album Inter-Be. Also, the design, craft, and choreography of the performance borrowed inspiration from the Navidson home on Ash Tree Lane featured at the center of the semiotic novel: House of Leaves.
Refined through the pleasure of a chamber concert, "This Is Not For You." was a multi-media labyrinth that used dance and performance to offer unimaginable memories that grew more and more unforgettable as the audience plunged deeper into the house.
Hola! I was wondering if you guys had hard copies of your cd out? Possibly at Electric Fetus or Cheapo? Anywho, love the tunes and can't wait to see you guys at First Ave.
I'm Thomas Kivi: (something like) Minneapolis' thinkingman's songwriter. Just want to say: cool stuff. It's unique, minimal. I can see the Bon Iver influence but it doesn't handicap originality.
If you're ever in a bind for a opener, shoot me a message. I play about every other show with cello, violin, bass, backup vocals, drums. I think that would fit well. Thomas
