When Pete Jive sings, charisma glides out of him and hugs you. A Pete Jive performance is an all-in, no one left seated affair, where Jive locks eyes, ears, legs, voice, fingers, and rapt attention around his audience. You don't hear a Pete Jive set; you and Pete live through it, together—that's the charisma-colored coolness Pete brings to every performance.
Do your soul a solid, lace up your dance shoes, boogie on over, and experience an American flat-picking classic crooner.
Brandon picked up the violin in ’99, and the guitar a year later. He went to college to study Music Theory, Composition, and Philosophy. and began writing all sorts of original music for things like a string quartet or chamber orchestra.
After experimenting for several years, he found myself drawn to that “three chords and the truth” that’s a little easier to find in folkier traditions.
Wandering his way through the bluegrass world, into the music of John Prine, Kris Kristofferson, Townes van Zandt, he found himself hooked on figuring out the art & craft of songwriting.
Brandon will be releasing his second album in 2024.
