I took up the guitar when I was 21 just as a hobby and eventually got into playing in a few bands with friends, mainly playing covers around the local bars back in the 80's. Then for about 20 years I didn't play much at all. A few years ago I met a few good musos and my enthusiasm was re-ignited. We ended up forming a blues band called Blueprint and we've had some fun getting a repertoire together and doing some recording and gigs. I've always had an interest in recording and with the technology available for home recording these days, I've been trying to learn more about that. The songs I've posted here are some of my first efforts at songwriting and recording and I'm looking forward to improving both as I learn more along the way. My band Blueprint can be heard here: BLUEPRINT

Hey Pete

Happy birthday, old codger. By way of "cold comfort", you are a year and a bit younger than I am. By way of "warm comfort" you look 10-15 years younger than me!!!!! I think that fits into the category of "damning by faint praise".....lol.

Have a great day, mate.

Cheers

Brian

HAPPY HOLIDAZE Peter.
All the best and then try to get rest.
Cheers. Take care. -Vesa.

Hi Peter, just listened to the Undertow, love the music, amazing guitar work, and love Shane's vocal. Lyrics are great! Really enjoyed listening to this. Wishing you well, Melsi

Oh my gosh I love the guitar work here!
Sweet...smooth and just beautiful!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Peter how have you been doing....i have been so busy..but i am around....Take Care Bro!

Man I love mellow music and yours was great! Makes me relax after a hard day, thanks for that, you have no idea...lol

You're a very talented guitarrist and have too much feeling in your playing.
A very Santana-ish tone.

Awesome blues guitar my friend, amazing how a few notes on a guitar can bring out so much feeling. reminds me of Dire Straits a little but that is not to take anything away from your composition. great production too. brilliant tune.

I'm really enjoying your music Peter. It's lush and plush with guts! Thanks. DJ

'Blues for my Brother', (Just got off the phone talkin' to my bro, co-incidence.). We don't see each other that much; but I can always count on him.
This has an emotonal appeal. Great expressive string bending; good tone, like the feel --some latin charm in there, if you don't mind.
Find bass;love it; All is well arranged. Fab production matey.
Your friend. -Vesa.

'Phrygian Smidgen' -(should get a creative title award') ha,haa...seriously the guitar playing is most inspiring-like the smooth fluent flowing and the easy drums and bass to keep the nifty groove. Fine expression my man. Love it. Great for a bleary eyed fellow with a morning coffee to charm the day.
Take care & keep on keepin' on;love your styling.
-Vesa.

Hi Peter. I just finished listening to all your songs. Lots of good stuff. I really liked "Elevation". Great playing all around!

Hi Peter, not sure where the heiroglyphics came from. I noticed that Lex Zaleta had been having the same trouble with his lyrics. I'm sure it's site based, but the fact that I did the blog at 1am with a few stubbies under my belt may have contributed.


Cheers

Brian

Hello Peter, I'm glad I stopped in...great sounds and really enjoy the guitar work. "Last Man Standing" is tight.
Cool place.

Hi Peter, been digging your playing both here and over at Soundclick. Yep I'm a Sandgroper - I answered you in a little more detail on my blog.

"Last Man standing"
Great words,mix use of instruments and effects.
Just a all around super job of song writting!

Bardo

Dude,
Greetings from the Gold Coast. Love your guitar work mate. Very tasteful and done with feeling & emotion. I'm enjoying your exceptional music. Sounds a bit Gary Moore-ish at times, which is a good thing of course. :)

Ohh Peter-- Damn! You just may be my fav all-around artist ever!!

I'll be back-- again and again, my friend. I have a good friend that will just be in ecstacy with your music. And I love it too!!

Musica delenit bestiam feram.

Hello Peter,

Your site looks good. I take it this is a premium version, as first example I have seen. Enjoyed your tunes, nice little bass jam there on that third one.

Take care,

Strum

Sometimes people ask me " gee, you really think the Variax is a good thing... and I say..."Have you listened to what Peter gets out of his ???, heck yes it's a good idea!"
