A Video Says a Thousand Words...
Hi Folks,
Last night... where to begin. Don't really know what to say other than it went even better than I could have possibly imagined (and believe me, I imagined it a hell of a lot!). Thank you for your incredible support and response, thank you to The Swell Season for the opportunity. Highlight of the night for me was when Glen called me out during their encore and the whole band backed me up (without having heard the song) on 'Til You Come Home. If the video had a close-up, you would see my smile touching on the back of my head.
Still can't believe it actually happened... Take care, Peter
A Very Real Dream Come True!
Hi Folks!
I recently found out that on July 12th, at the gorgeous Queen Elizabeth Theatre in Toronto, I will be opening for my #1 hero, Glen Hansard (The Swell Season, The Frames, ‘Once’). I wanted to share this with you for a few reasons. For one, I was scratching my head wondering how I went from playing my first show at the Free Times Café over 7 years ago, to now having this opportunity. I’ve always struggled to notice progress, to feel like I’m getting anywhere. I guess it’s hard to see it from the inside but I know what I want, and it always feels so far away. In this very moment (and I’m sure the feeling will likely pass…) this feels like I’m actually on the way, a moment in time, a very real dream come true.
Second of all, this show is particularly special to me, because I decided I was going to be a singer-songwriter for the rest of my life the first time I saw Glen play. His band The Frames were opening for Damien Rice at Convocation Hall in Toronto and I was at the show. I was so blown away, and yet I felt like I could somehow be a part of what they had done, I HAD to be a part of it. After the show, I was pretty overcome by emotion and couldn’t go home. I was just standing outside, unable to leave, and Glen happened to walk by. I started talking to him, but he seemed to notice that I was pretty overwhelmed and asked if I was okay. I don't quite remember what I answered but I know he proceeded to take me back inside the venue, took me up on the stage, introduced me to Damien Rice, his band and the rest of The Frames, and then invited me out for drinks. I’ll never forget that genuine warmth and kindness; the same warmth and kindness he has always shown me every time he comes to Toronto, even after Academy Awards and sold-out shows worldwide. Ever since then, I have been pursuing this career relentlessly and trying to do it in the way that Glen taught me that night.
All this to say, thank you for your support along the way and helping to make this happen. Some of you have been checking this site for the past 7 years, some maybe for the first time. Either way, I’m incredibly grateful that you’re here. There is much work to be done, and I’m a pretty far away from that imaginary ‘place’ I want to be, but I feel lucky to be alive, lucky to get to do what I do, and so lucky that I have people like you to share it with.
Wishing you all many ‘dream come true’ moments too, much warmth, Peter
n.b. Tickets are ALMOST sold out! Please click banner or HERE if you're in the area and would like to see the show

Hi Folks!
Finally home for a few days after an incredible Canadian tour, thanks for making it so great!
VERY SPECIAL TORONTO SHOW:
For all of you in Toronto, near Toronto, prone to travelling to Toronto, friends of people in Toronto: just a reminder that I am doing a very special show this coming Friday (May 14th) at one of the most gorgeous venues in the city: The Music Gallery (197 John Street). I will be joined by a 4-piece string/horn section (with arrangements by Bryden Baird (Feist) and Mike Olsen (The Hidden Cameras, Arcade Fire)), Valery Gore will be playing piano and singing (she’s so bloody good), sirens of song Emma-Lee and Layah Jane will be melting hearts with lush harmonies (2 incredible singer songwriters in their own right), Dave Tolley (just came off tour with Xavier Rudd) will be adding some tasty grooves and producer/songwriter Rob Szabo will also be there adding his magic. It will still be a solo show at heart, heightened by a few very special guests. My good friend and Netherlands tour-mate Matthew De Zoete will also be opening the night.
Just when I thought I couldn’t get any more excited, Justin Broadbent (the artist who does all my album artwork) and his sisters Rose and Joy agreed to do an art installation as part of the stage setup!
Tickets are over 75% sold-out! If you would like to come, it is highly recommended that you get your tickets in advance. You will also save $5! Tickets are available now HERE for only $15.
CHARTS:
I am very pleased to report that the new album 'First of the Last to Know' debuted at #1 on itunes on the singer-songwriter charts, and thanks to your incredible response, it has even charted in the top 200 of retail sales (in all genres nationwide!) for the past 4 weeks in a row! Thank you!
UK TOUR:
The final chapter of this 4-month non-stop 80+ show tour will see me touring for 2 weeks throughout the UK. If you have any friends/family/anyone in the UK, please see my list of dates HERE and feel free to spread the word.
LOOKING AHEAD:
I have some great shows later in June including the Black Sheep in Wakefield, the Montreal Folk Festival on the Canal and plenty others coming in, please stay tuned to the SHOWS section for regular updates
Also, I have some really exciting online content that I’m developing including a multi-angle video tutorials series for all the new tunes, a brand new online concept I’m tentatively calling ‘esongs’ as well as many other surprises. More on that over the coming months.
In the meantime, thank you for your continued support, looking forward to seeing you again on the next tour! (really, it’s just one big on-going tour isn’t it...)
Take care, lots of love, Peter

Greetings from the road/ GravyTrain
Hi Folks!
Just a quick little hello to say that the tour is going delightfully. I have barely had any time to do anything other than drive, sleep and play but I'm loving the shows and have been blown away by the turn-outs every night. Thanks so much for coming out and for all of you who have been sending your friends and family in other cities out too, that goes a very long way.
I also wanted to let you know about my very good friend's movie 'GravyTrain' which opens THIS Friday in Toronto (screenings are taking place in many locations, please check HERE for details) 2 of my songs are in the soundtrack (although not what you would expect... I wrote them just for the movie, see if you can spot them) They're doing a really fun premiere on opening night at the AMC at Yonge and Dundas square, hopefully you can check it out! (they're the creators of the hit movie 'The Way of the Tosser', one of my favorites of 2008)
Off to soundcheck for my show at the Artspace in Prince George tonight, I'll check back soon! In the meantime,for daily updates please follow me on twitter (peterkatzmusic)
Thanks and take care, Peter
Today is the day!
(and a very special video)
Hi Folks!
Today is the day that my new album ‘First of the Last to Know’ physically comes out in stores. I have waited a very, very long time for this moment. I am so proud of this record and am so excited to share it with you. The packaging was designed by the incredible Justin Broadbent, he is a miracle worker. I want to say an enormous thank you to everyone who helped support the creation of it (emotionally, financially, good-vibingly, etc. etc.) I literally could not have done it without you.
Instead of going into some long-winded schpiel, I thought I would share a short video with you that my best friend/documentary filmmaker Melissa Dozois made. I think it sums it all up.
Please watch that HERE
Beyond that, I’ve just begun my 5-week Canadian tour (I’m actually writing you from Thunder Bay). I have shows from Montreal to Victoria (East Coast, I will be back eventually!). All of the dates are posted HERE and I also made an e-flyer that you can check out HERE and I added some ‘share this’ buttons so you can easily pass it along to a friend/tweet/facebook etc if you’re so inclined.
I have lots to tell you about this month so please forgive me for a slightly higher volume of emails. Lots of exciting stuff like the launch of my e-songs, more touring, new tutorials, etc. etc. All in good time, for now I’d love it if you could check out the video my friend Melissa made. It really touched me and I’m eager to share.
See you on the road! take care and THANK YOU! Peter

Here We Go!

Hello folks! (Hallo Nederlands Vrienden!)
I leave in 3 hours for Europe to begin 4 months straight of touring in support of the release of my new album ‘First of the Last to Know’ (so far shows in the Netherlands, Germany, Canada, U.S., the U.K. with more to come). I am unbelievably excited, slightly terrified, significantly overwhelmed and all-round delighted to begin. The early reports from the pre-sales perks campaign are that people really seem to like the record so that’s encouraging news. My favorite part about what I do though has always been to get out there and play in person. I can’t wait to do so much of that over the next 4 months (and beyond!)
The first leg of my tour will be in the Netherlands with 28 shows throughout the country. Some will be solo, most will be with another great Canadian singer-songwriter named Matthew de Zoete. For a complete list of dates, please click HERE I have also created a new video where I display my incredible mastery of the Dutch language. It’s really quite astonishing. You can check it out HERE
Over the next several months as I release ‘First of the Last to Know’, (Feb 9th in the Netherlands, April in Canada, tba beyond), I have a whole bunch of really exciting content that I’ll be putting out beyond the actual songs. I’ve been developing something called an ‘esong’ which I’m SUPER excited about along with lots of original video content and more. I’m also developing a new website that will be way more interactive than anything I’ve ever done before, I can’t wait for it to all be revealed over the next few months. Stay tuned for that!
A quick note to my Guelph and Toronto friends. Guelph: I’m very sorry the Jan 29th show was postponed, it will be re-scheduled in March! Toronto: I know you’ve been neglected (not intentionally). I am planning a really special event just for you. Can’t announce it quite yet but I promise I’ll make it up to you.
Last but certainly not least, I created an original soundscape for dancer/choreographer Andrea Spaziani. The show runs from Feb 9th – 13th at Hub 14 in Toronto (14 Markham St) at 8 pm every night. Tickets can be booked by calling 416 404 6429 ext. 42 –seating is limited so this is highly recommended) I am so proud to be a part of this evening.
This is much longer than I intended but there’s just so many exciting things going on, it’s hard to stop! You’ll be hearing from me a lot more frequently over the next few months so please check back soon.
Thank you so much for letting me do this, see you all very soon!
Take care, Peter
Judy Shepard
Hi Folks,
I had the incredible honour of getting to playmy song 'The Fence (Matthew Shepard's Song)' before Judy Shepard spoke at York University last night. It was an amazingly powerful experience, I still haven't fully processed it yet. Just wanted to share a little pic with you, and say thanks again to Judy for doing what she does. If she's speaking in a town near you, please go and hear what she has to share. Take care, Peter
n.b. For those of you who have been emailing me looking for a copy of the song, it will be available on my new record starting April 6th. If you drop me a line though, I'll see what I can do to get it to you a little earlier.
REMINDER - Montreal THIS Sat. Night with Juno Award Winner!
Hello my Montreal Friends! Just a quick reminder that I will be playing my first show of the year supporting 2009 Juno-Award winner Old Man Luedecke at Petit Campus, THIS Saturday night, January 16th. Old Man Luedecke is an incredible performer and songwriter, it should be an amazing night. I will be playing songs from my brand new record and might just have a little surprise for you… Full show info HERE This will be my only Montreal show until the summer, hopefully you can make it out! Thanks and take care, Peter
Jan 13th Craig Cardiff show cancelled
Hi Folks,
I owe you a proper Happy New Years (coming soon) but in the meantime, just wanted to update you that unfortunately the Craig Cardiff show that I was supposed to support at York University next week has been cancelled. I'm pretty sad about it but that's just the way it goes sometimes... Better news soon!
Thanks and take care, Peter
'Posters' Video!
Hi Folks,
Tomorrow is the big day when I FINALLY master my new record which means that 48 hours from now, it will be locked-in and ready to be manufactured.
As one final hurrah from my last record ‘More Nights’, I am extremely pleased to announce the release of the music video for ‘Posters’. I have been wanting to make a video for this song for years but could never get the funding in place. After countless attempts, we were finally successful and brilliant director Tim Martin made a video I’m extremely proud of.
Please check it out by clicking HERE or the above image.
Plenty more soon! Thanks and take care, Peter
Look at all those beautiful shows....
Hi Folks,
Just a wee note to say that my 'shows' section is alive and well with tons of new shows added. PLENTY more to come, please check back regularly AND, if you want me to play in your city, drop me a line (peter<a>peterkatz.com). Back to it! Take care, Peter
The stuff of dreams... Glen Hansard sings on my record!
Hi Folks,
I still can't believe it but a genuine dream came true for me yesterday. My #1 musical/integrity hero, Glen Hansard (star of 'Once', lead singer from The Frames and The Swell Season), sang on my new record. Amidst a very busy touring schedule, he took the time to come down to the studio and record before heading back over to Massey Hall to play a sold out show. I was in the audience last night and it was easily one of the best concerts I have ever seen by any artist in my life. Take my word for it, go see them live, that's where it's at. Their tour dates are posted at www.theswellseason.com
Back to work, there is much to be done. Playing tonight in Waterloo, going to try to channel some of that energy from yesterday. Take care, dream big, Peter
Waterloo show this Wednesday, Nov 4th (and Happy Halloween!)
Hi Folks,
Just a quick one to let you know
that I'll be playing a great songwriters circle on Wednesday night at Maxwell's Music House in Waterloo (2220 King St N). Also on the bill are Mandippal and the producer of my new record (amazing singer-songwriter in his own right) Rob Szabo! I have a feeling it's going to be a really fun night. Tickets or on-sale now by clicking HERE
Final mixes on the new record should be done this week!
Take care, Peter
A little update and Sharon, Lois and Bram!
Hi Folks,
Just a quick one to let you know that I'm STILL working on the new record... I have also begun planning my CD release tour for 2010. It's going to be crazy with lots of international dates. I just posted the first few Netherlands dates, so many more to come so please check back soon. I feel like I have so much to say, so much to share but it all has to wait... I'm still here, looking forward to resurfacing soon (but not soon enough in my books). Hope you're all doing well, more updates soon (including the new music video for 'Posters'! It's a beauty...)
n.b. I was at a Folk conference this weekend and got to meet Sharon Lois and Bram!! We sang 'Skinamarinkydinkydink'! (spelling?) ... ahh the memories... sniff, sniff...(check out the photo. The Good Lovelies are there too! Sharon was just out of frame so you can pretend that Ken Whiteley (the guy with the white beard) is her. No disrespect Sharon! (no disrespect Ken too)
Take care, Peter
Guelphfest!
Hi Folks,
Just a quick one to let you know that I will be playing as part of Guelphfest on October 2nd. Full info in the shows section. Check out the poster (can you find my face? It's staring right at you...) See you then! Take care, Peter
Checking in and some photos
Hi Folks,
O Canada! Happy to be home, well-rested, jet-lag recovered and looking ahead. Speaking of looking ahead, Rob (the producer) and I are in the thick of final mixing for the record. I know I keep saying that we're almost done... Well, we are ALMOST done but that final 5% seems to take forever and we're both pretty stubborn about not rushing it for once. We're being really picky, not settling and that's just the way it's got to be I think. I promise it'll be the best I can offer when it's done.
In the meantime, I played a few great shows in Ontario and Quebec the past few days and thought I'd share a few pics, taken by my friend and photographer extraordinaire Tristan Brand. Hope you enjoythem.
This quiet will soon turn to storms. Lots of music, videos, shows, etc. to share in the next few months...
Take care, PEter

Hi Folks,
Having a great time on my German tour! Check out these photos ---definitely a first for me! Video tour blogs coming up momentarily, internet is a little few and far between in the German backwoods but I'll find a way! Alright, sorry to be brief, gotta go! Take care, more soon, Peter
A few fun photos
Hi Folks,
A friend just sent me a few photos from my recent show in Mississauga. There were about 25 exchange students from Spain in the audience and I happened to know a song in Spanish from my shows in Mexico. I called them up on stage and we had a great time singing together. Thought I'd share the pics! Thanks to Colleen So for sending them in! (click to enlarge)
Leaving for my tour in Germany in a few days! Very excited!
Take care, Peter
I'm back!
Hi Folks,
After the longest stretch of time-off I've ever had in my life (a whole month!) I am now back and rearing to go! I've already played 3 shows since coming back and have been pulling long hours in the studio getting the mixes in tip-top shape for the new record (I am so excited for you to hear it... I hate waiting!!)
It's still going to be a while unfortunately, BUT, in the meantime, you can hear a lot of the new material live when I play a great outdoor show under the stars (depending on sunset...) in Mississauga this Sunday from 7 - 9 (please note the time change --it used to be 7:30) This will be my 3rd year in a row playing the My Mississauga Festival, it's always a really fun night so bring your family, friends and lawnchairs and soak up the summer. (And for all you Torontonians, it's only a 20 minute drive!)
I'll have more updates soon I'm sure, just wanted to at least touch base and say 'hello'.
Hello.
Take care and talk soon, Peter
Zzzz...
Hi Folks,
About to disappear for a few weeks for some down time before coming back at the beginning of July to finish up recording/mixing/mastering. Sweet sweet rest... In the meantime, hope you have a great start to summer and we'll see you out there soon! Take care, Peter

Award Nomination!
How about that, I just found out that I've been nominated for the COCA Emerging Artist of the year award! That's pretty darn nice. Crossing my toes... Take care, Peter
Peter Learns Dutch Overnight (and other amazing news!)
Hi Folks! / Hallo Folks! (Impressive, isn’t it)
I have mastered the Dutch language in a mere 24 hours and I have a video to prove it!
To celebrate, I am touring in the Netherlands for the first 2 weeks of May (and also, I suppose, in support of the release of ‘More Nights’ over there) I will be opening for Lucky Fonz III, a very well known Dutch singer-songwriter who toured with me here in Canada in March. We’re going to be playing at some of the best clubs and theaters in the country; I couldn’t be more excited!! If you have any Dutch family/friends then please send them along (and if you need help communicating with them in Dutch, just ask me, I’m an expert now)
In other news, the new record is progressing along very nicely. I’m actually sitting on the couch at the studio while Rob is editing what we recorded today. Sounding good! It won’t be the last time I say this but thanks again to all of you for your incredible generosity in regards to my perk campaign, (whether you could help financially or not). I really could not be doing this without you. I will have video blogs/etc., special updates for you in the relatively near future, just need time to edit them and so far I’ve been eat/sleep/breathing the studio (and learning new languages).
And finally, to my fellow Torontonians: I am very pleased to report that I will be supporting my friend and uber-talent Emma-Lee at the Drake Hotel this coming Saturday. I’ll be doing a solo opening set from 8:45 – 9:30 Even if you can’t make it for my set, I highly recommend you catch Emma-Lee before she’s selling out Massey Hall. (visit www.emma-lee.com for more info, and if you pick up her record then listen closely to track #9 ‘Where You Want to Be’ ---see if you recognize the person singing harmony…. )
That’s all for now, back underwater!
Take care, Peter
