Info:
After almost 10 years in the band PUSH it was time for a change for Martie Peters and the challenge to record an album with a sologroup seemed like the next natural step forward. He teamed up with long time friend and multi musician (keyboards, guitar, bass) Anthony Lledo for the production while former bandmate Martin Slott was invited in as the main guitarist for the new songs.
Martie wanted to cover more ground than what he had previously achieved in a band and so he also hooked up with guitarist Rene Shades, the two played together in the sleaze rock band SATERIA from 1987 to 1991, to add different moods for different songs. Rene Shades has recently played with Mike Tramp's touring band. Christian Thiesen is an old school guitarist who added just the right feeling for the coverversion of the 1974 Rod Stewart/Ron Wood track "Dixie Toot". Various other musicians have been brought in and the result is a fresh album that varies from classic hard rock songs to ballads and midtempo tracks, more ground is covered!
MPG “Martie Peters Group“ was recorded in Copenhagen during 2004 and mixed by no one else than Tommy Hansen who was recently responsible for TNT and FATE. The album, also officially released in Japan, contains of 11 great melodic rock songs and Martie's voice reminds to MIKE TRAMP at his best days in WHITE LION: the fans will love this album!
“This really "pushes" and rocks bigtime! Martie Peter's (ex-PUSH) first solo release let's the good old times return”. Sebastian Eder, A&R of MTM, couldn't believe his ears. His first impression was, "A new WHITE LION". Martie's voice is so similar that probably even Mike Tramp has his doubts, whether it's an original or an imitiation”.
Martie Peters was able to present his new songs to a bigger audience when he supported MIKE TRAMP on his European tour 2004 on a few shows in Denmark. The song „The Beast Inside“ was also pre-released on the new MTM MUSIC compilation volume 10 and received overwhelming feedback.
