小简介
Peter Mulvey是一个为相当独立的歌手,如果不了解他的话都会以为他是一个新人,其实Peter Mulvey在90年代就已经出道了,从1995年的首张专辑《Rapture》到今年推出的这张全新专辑,他目前已经推出了正好十张个人专辑。其实真的很难想象像Peter Mulvey这样独立的歌手是如何在欧美竞争那么激烈的演唱界生存的,也许我们真的应该仔细听听他的歌曲,然后在和自己国家同等歌手比较比较,那么我们就不难发现其中的差距了!
Urban art-folkster Peter Mulvey has lived an artist's life since adolescence -- he was a college theater major, spent time busking in Dublin, Ireland, and founded the Milwaukee band Big Sky, all before his early twenties. But his professional music career didn't really begin until 1991, when was fired from a job at a Kinko's Copiers in Boston. Flat broke and in need of immediate cash to entertain his visiting brother, Mulvey starting playing his guitar in the subway. He supported himself that way for a couple of years, working ten-hour days in the smog-drenched underground. In the meantime, he released two CDs on his own (Brother Rabbit Speaks in 1992; Rain in 1993). Mulvey's rising star hit the accelerator in 1994 when he won the Boston Acoustic Underground competition. In 1996, he signed with Eastern Front Records and recorded the Boston Award-nominated Rapture, which won consistent raves for his dazzlingly funky acoustic fretwork. He tossed off an acoustic EP (Goodbye Bob) before releasing a much more aggressive acoustic modern-rock album in 1997 (Deep Blue, also on Eastern Front). As a side project, the prolific guitarist also rejoined his old colleagues from Big Sky in 1997, to record a CD entitled Lately under the band name Little Sky. The solo The Trouble with Poets followed in the spring of 2000.
