30-Minute Music Hour: Peter Mulvey
(Peter Mulvey performs live on the 30-Minute Music Hour.)
Mulvey cut his songwriting teeth busking the streets of Dublin before moving to Boston and eventually heading back to his hometown of Milwaukee. Mulvey's incredible talent on the guitar runs the gamut of styles — from slack-key to jazz to precision finger picking. His songs revolve around, as he calls it, "the small facts of living." Rolling Stone describes his voice as, "lush and hushed, with surrealistic beauty." In addition to the respect Mulvey enjoys critically, he's also known as a hard charging touring performer. His recent, "Look Ma, No Gasoline Tour," was a ten-day, 300-mile concert tour of Wisconsin to which he rode entirely on his bike.
