   About The Peasants
The Peasants are fronted by singer/guitarist Pete Cassani. He has been playing the streets, subways, clubs and coffeehouses of the world for 20 years. Pete and The Peasants have been on over 250 College Radio Stations, 15 US tours, 8 European tours and hundreds of New England Appearances.

They have opened for such notable acts as Aerosmith, The White Stripes and The Stray Cats. Their songs have appeared on MTV, VH-1, The Shield (Cable TV) show, Girls Gone Wild, Behind The Music and many, many other Cable shows too numerous to list. During the summer months they do street concerts in Harvard Square, Cambridge.

Love Your Enemy is the third Peasant record to date. It opens with the stolen election of 2000 by George W Bush and carries into the illegal invasion of Iraq. Styles include Punk, Hard Rock, Pop, Folk and Swing. Love, Politics, Spiritual themes and Sex are addressed. Pick up any Peasant CD and you'll wear it thin. Guaranteed or your money back.

The Peasants completed a NINE WEEK Tour of Germany, Holland and Austria in Fall 2007. Back in the USA working on new material, The Peasants hope to return to Europe in Fall 2008.

hola The Peasants ! qué tal? yo aquí escribiendo todo el día este mismo saludo a todos mis friends. ya hasta las teclas que uso en este mismo estúpido e insípido recadito están como los jeans que usa mi papá para bañar al perro. ojalá tuviera algo más deinspiración. pero te aseguro que si llega la usaré para una rola, no para andar bombardeando myspace con saludos desnutridos. ayós! besitos!

Hey, Pete, we're listenin' to your album, you gotta put "Less and Less" up on your space, it's that '*&*%$#, we wish we wrote that song' tune. P.S. we got your email, decided to grab hold of that Irish luck. Great story.

Hey, Pete,

We turned our good friend, Pete Berwick (on our top friends). on to your music. You guys totally share the same kinda "Attitude' The venue might alter slightly, but the commonality remains- you guys have fevered words in common. I told him to listen to "Homeland Security," and you should turn him on to "Less and Less." These two songs are the true gems of this album, Pete.

Cheers,
Maureen & Tom
