Faces of the Sun
On FACES OF THE SUN (Grammy Nominated 2007)
Peter draws from many Superb elements of his outstanding career: the sensitivity of Migration, the drama of How The West Was Lost and the excitement of Red Moon, and his own dynamic piano and keyboards. These brilliant soundscapes are complimented by an exceptional lineup of guest artists. Grammy Winners, Mary Youngblood and Bill Miller; Legendary instrumentalists Tony Levin and Paul McCandless; and Native American stars Joseph FireCrow, Kevin Locke, Arvel Bird, Jeff Ball and Douglas Blue Feather. This is an upbeat and highly produced recording worthy of a Grammy Nomination for Best New Age Album.
