Artists:Peter Mulvey
From WWR
|
Peter Mulvey began as a self-described "city kid" from Milwaukee, Wisconsin. He played, wrote, and sang in bands while studying theatre at Marquette University. After graduating, he traveled to Ireland, where he learned the trade of busker on the streets of Dublin. Returning to the U.S. a few years later, he settled in Boston, building an audience through street and subway performing, while also immersing himself in the thriving musical community. Since his 2000 release The Trouble with Poets , Mulvey has found a home with the venerable indie label Signature Sounds Recordings. His most recent albums for the Massachusetts label were the 2004 release Kitchen Radio , the 2003 collaborative Redbird album (with label-mates Kris Delmhorst and Jeffrey Foucault), and his 2001 CD, Ten Thousand Mornings , an album of cover songs recorded entirely in the subways of Boston. MOJO described the album as "simultaneously Mulvey's homage to his one-time training ground and a beautifully atmospheric record of gifted interpretations."
Always looking for ways to further immerse himself in language, art, and music, Mulvey has also scored music for theatre and modern dance, and has had numerous songs featured in film and television including various WB programs and PBS documentaries.
In addition to the critical acclaim that his recorded works have brought him, though, Peter Mulvey is also highly regarded (and respected by his fellow musicians) as a serious disciple of the road. Touring rigorously, year in and year out, has made him who and what he is. Traveling from Dublin to Talkeetna and all points in between, whether playing solo, duo, or with a full-on rock back, live performance is what defines his work and is where he shines.
Peter Mulvey and David Goodrich played a house concert together at the Wheat Hole on December 5, 2004, and stuck around for an on-air interview the next day.

Saw Mulvey at Emmett's Tavern in West Dundee, Illinois on Friday August 11, 2006. Classic Mulvey! He has a very quick and sharp mind. Great venue and super beer being brewed at Emmett's Tavern. Mulvey sends his best to the listeners of WWR! -- RickHap
