Hi! I created his first multi-track recording when I bounced a track from my family's Craig cassette deck to a portable Radio Shack when I was a teenager. Inspired by the likes of multi-track pioneers Paul McCartney, Emitt Rhodes and Todd Rundgren, I have recorded a number of albums and singles over five decades (some are unreleased). Never one to stay in one creative space, I like to transverse from ballads, to atmospheric synth-based explorations, to rock and funky-based jazz. I am also half of flute-guitar/keyboard duo Brooks & Day with my longtime friend Ben Brooks.
I often post songs-in-progress on Soundcloud.
Note: There are several musicians named Peter Day in the U.S. and UK. This Peter Day grew up in the Pasadena area and currently resides in a rural California desert town.
