Well, first off my name is Pete Mars. I'm from Long Beach, CA. I have been in love with music for as long as I can remember. I used to listen to Jimi Hendrix when I was younger so I begged my mom for a guitar, which I finally got at age 12. I started rapping seriously at about 16. My whole mission i guess is just to make really good music, like if everyone else is making Ford's right now, I wanna be the Maybach of hip hop haha.Band/artist history
I've performed for Q-Tip, Common, Consequence and 88-Keys. I'm also a producer, I sing, and write songs for other artists. I'm currently prepping the release of my debut project The Astro Boy EP which is finished and going to be released on iTunes. I'm working on my mixtape My Name Is Pete, which includes tracks from P Villa and some stuff I did. And my album which I have yet to name is in the beginning stages of production.Have you performed in front of an audience?I do perform live. And yes I love it whole heartedly. I get this feeling from the crowd that is, well, better than sex to me. No bull. I get up there and just zone. I'd have to say when i got to open up for Q-Tip that was pretty hype for me.
