He then formed the band Innish, comprising Peter on guitar –vocals, melodeon and harmonicas, Brendan Mulholland (flute, whistle) and Mark Mulligan (fiddle – bodhran drum). Innish preformed at festivals, cultural events and also did some cross community work. The bands repertoire was a good cross-section of Irish traditional music and song. When the members of Innish went their separate ways, Peter went solo again, collecting and writing more songs. For two years he has done the Pub circuit in Scotland and Ireland.

He has recently released the album Memories Embrace, made up of some of his favourite songs and tunes. Promoting this album he hopes to turn full-time professional over the next year. His aim is it to perform at festivals, Folk Clubs and cultural events as his repertoire suits these venues.

Peter also sings for the band Ailsa, comprising Peter on guitar and vocals, Wilbert Garvin (uilleann pipes, whistles) and Barbara Gray (keyboards). Their recent project concentrates on composing music to poems from 18^th and 19^th century poets from Co. Antrim, sung in the native tongue of that time.

Peter also makes Bowed Psalteries. For information on Peter's new range of bowed psalteries please click here
