SoundClick artist: PORCUPINE - Campfire songs for a new generation. Straight up good times and stories from the road. Clap your ha

A little bit country. A little bit rock and roll.
A whole lotta' bastard

Porcupine has the presence of the 'classic' country sound with a progressive, surf edge that Peter is known so well for. Combined with tongue-in-cheek humor, honest performance and delivery and kick your ass attitude Peter X Anthony remains to live up to the moniker of Rock & Rolls Bastard Son.

PXA Quote: "The whole point behind the cd is simplicity. For years I've been writing songs and solos that either require a whole band to play or require a chart and two hours to figure out. I just wanted to write and record a cd that the average Joe could pick up his dusty old acoustic guitar and sing and play along to. No rocket science, dictionaries or Marshall stacks required."

Peter X Anthony may not be a household name but people know who he is.

A veteran of the road and the rock & roll landscape of Canada for the past 20 years his schizophrenic guitar has graced countless stages and studios across the land. Along the way he’s written 100’s of songs in hotel rooms, buses, vans, trains and ditches. He's released countless independent recordings, and has created somewhat of an underground cult following along the way.

Many of Peter's earlier recordings were instrumental and for a time through the late 80's he was supplying the new "shred" guitar sound for everything from beer commercials to movies. The work left his "singin" songs on the back burner for emergency campfires, sing-a-longs and those nights when you just might get stuck at the Legion.

After years of persuasion Peter has finally decided to start releasing the diaries of the Six-String SchiXophrenic. This is chapter 1.

Throughout 2008 Peter will be bringing the Porcupine Roadshow to as many locations as possible.
Peter X Anthony is fully committed to live performance and seeing him in that context truly tells the whole story. We hope to see you soon. Enjoy!
