Album Notes

"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 Magazine

Mountains 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.

Another wonderful CD for Autumn...

I fell in love with this CD along with Earth Town Square many years ago and no Autumn is complete without a listen or two or three. Could You Be, Round World and Yukon Sally are such great pieces. Thank you, Pete, for this great work. All the best always, Jon Fortman, Fifth St. Coffeehouse, FUMC Fort Worth, TX.
