"Peter writes very smart songs, but the nice thing about them is they don't feel smart while you're listening to them. There's a lot of fun in them but also wisdom, which is the sort of thing that rewards repeated listening." -Minnesota Public Radio"Mayer's songs are crafted like Shaker furniture, with no place for superfluous embellishment or throwaway lines." - Acoustic Guitar Magazine"This native of Minnesota is a master storyteller" - Folks Roots MagazineMountains and motorcycles; pigs, pubs, and planets; insight, hope and humor--such are the ingredients one finds in the songs of Peter Mayer. Earthy and intimate, Mayer's songs invite the listener to consider the deeper aspects of life. The standard lyrical dish of love lost and found is not on his menu, rather, it consists of an eclectic blend of thoughtful songs about the collective human journey. His welcoming voice and inventive guitar work along with his honest delivery provide the perfect vehicle for his down-home wisdom.Peter's discography:"Earth Town Square" (2002)"Elements" (2001)"Million Year Mind" (1999)"Bountiful" (1997)"Straw House Down" (1995)"Uncrowded Sky" (1993)Peter's accolades and awards include:1999 McKnight Fellowship for Performing Musicians1998 NACA Midwest Hall of Fame Award1998 Lyons Folk Festival Songwriting Competition Finalist1998 Telluride Troubadour Songwriting Competition FinalistNote - There are two musicians named Peter Mayer.

Hearing this fine aggregation from the very jazz-active Northwest section of the U.S. evokes many pleasant images. The medley of "Nearness of You" and "I Only Have Eyes for You" recalls a soft summer evening with the big band playing on an outdoor bandstand for swaying dancers at a small town's annual July 4th celebration. (The band uses the medley device quite effectively with some distinctive combinations of tunes.) At other times, there's the annual college prom when the band swings with killer diller arrangements. But for the most part, the music on this album leans more to the mellower side rather than pursuing high voltage pyrotechnics. Not Blue Barron saccharinely mellow by any means, but closer to Claude Thornhill than Stan Kenton. This softer is better approach reflects the arranging style of Gaylord Jones who has been in the music business for more than 50 years. Among his credits is a stint as band arranger for the Freddie Slack Orchestra ...

My co-writer (Nick Baker), our engineer Jared Brown and I recorded most of the album at Graham Nash’s house in Los Angeles. My live band laid down several tracks – it was really cool to have other musicians besides the usual team (myself & Nick)!It was a fun (too much fun at times!) and a vibey environment, seeming as though we were on some exotic island – we heard the call of neighbors’ peacocks during sessions, which made recording vocals interesting. It was also very inspiring to record in the Nash studio – there was a beautiful portrait of Joni Mitchell, pictures of the Beatles, and Graham’s cool hippy jeans he wore at Woodstock!It’s really exciting to have this album for the world to hear. I am very proud of every song and I hope you will love “Modern Fairytale” as much as my friends & I loved creating it.A big Russian hug & spasibo!!! ~ Marina :)SONG NOTES1. HopeTraveling & touring all over the world made me realize how much alike we, humans, really are. We all want love, happiness and peace. And it’s absolutely incredible how music transcends culture, age or language barrier. I call this song my ultimate peace song. 2. The Strength I NeedLife is crazy, and so is this music business. Some days are great, and some are not as much. But I always hope that I will have it within me to deal with whatever life brings.3. Sunshine GuaranteedAs a huge Beatles fan, I wanted this song to sound like a straight-out-of-the-60s happy tune. This is one of the few songs I wrote in less than 10 minutes – right before my first tour in the UK in April 2007.4. FoolPeople, especially in the American culture, often feel like they’re supposed to show the world their happy face, no matter what might be going on deep down inside. A fake smile, a phony “hi, how are you” are the little things that mask the real feelings. I think it’s okay not to be happy 100% of the time – it’s part of life, isn’t it?5. Fate”so here’s the inside story, this is a modern fairytale”…. We tried to record this song in a fun way, kind of like obladi-oblada by the Beatles. We recorded 4 other versions with 2 different producers prior to this version! Our guitar player was a trooper for bearing with us on all the versions!6. I’ll Stand Up For You This is a song for all parents ...
