It’s Spring!

And what a spring it has been so far! Just got back from a wonderful Spring Gathering, maybe the best ever! (I say that every year.) I’ve been diligently rehearsing with friend and pianist Ryan Rogers who will be joining me at 68 Jay St. Bar this Saturday, May 19 for a 40-minute set. I will be opening for my dear friend Myshkin, of whom I am a passionate fan. I have not seen her in years and am delighted to be sharing the stage with her next week. We will, rehearsal time permitting, be doing some tunes together.

This is my last official gig for a good long time, probably until at least the end of the year. I’m taking the summer off of gigging and my next big project (besides helping to produce Roll in the Hay: A Celebration of Harry Hay in September) will be going into the studio (hopefully this fall) to do my first-ever full-length recording as a solo artist. More on this as it develops.

Happy Spring! (And summer just around the corner.)

Goin’ Back to New Orleans!

Hey folks! I’m super excited about my latest collaboration with NYC theater and dance artist Davi Cohen! We’ve been singing together since May of this year and have done two mini-shows since then. We had great fun, singing some of my originals such as “I’ll Be Your Horsie” and “I Can Hardly Wait” and some [...]

I’m excited and honored to be a part of HOT! Festival this year at Dixon Place in the Lower East Side on Thursday, June 30th. I had a wonderful time there in January, and this time I’m pretty sure there won’t be six inches of snow! I will be joined by a singer-songwriter I’ve met [...]

I am finally catching up to a 21st-century kind of speed. I just finished this song and have immediately put it up on YouTube for your enjoyment. I started writing these lyrics years ago and the store referenced is the Whole Foods on Tchoupitoulas in Uptown New Orleans.

Fun with harmonies!

Just got this clip from our friend Brett Every, who sang with us as our NYC gig in June 2010. Enjoy!

Happy New Year!

After being busy with other things (having fun, chasing men and sometimes licking wounds), there are some gigs coming up! I, Pete, am headlining a solo gig in NYC at Dixon Place in the lounge on January 26. This is a very laid back, atmospheric venue that reminded me immediately of New Orleans the first time [...]

Hooray!

I am finally on YouTube. We here at PeteAndPaul.com are not known for our lightning speed and sound business plans, but we do eventually try to get around to things. For your listening and viewing pleasure, captured at Julius’ in the Village in late July, we now have a clip of “Anal Anthem” (which we’ve [...]

Hi everyone. Pistol Pete & Popgun Paul played our first New York show in nine years last month at The Duplex on June 17. It was a magical night of music helped by a solid week of rehearsals so we felt and sounded pretty tight. We broke out some old ones from the vault such as [...]
