Pete's style was developed through years of live performances. During the eighties he spent his time touring the south and mid-west with a regional rock
band and discovering his love for the blues. Eventually the road and the blues brought him to Kansas City. After a few years of local jams and learning from blues and jazz masters, he was discovered by Cotton Candy
Washington. He served as her sideman and section leader 1998 through
1999, winning the city's best band honors both years, with a third place
finish at the 1998 International Blues Competition. Wanting to expand the
role and recognition of the sax in Kansas City Blues, he released the 2001
solo effort "Cheap Live Sax". Now a published songwriter and seasoned
solo performer, he continues to pursue his love of rhythms and textures.
Still playing, experimenting and creating...and still loving Kansas City Blues.
