One of the most well-respected singer/songwriters of his generation, Peter Case is an artist whose eclectic body of work embraces rock & roll, contemporary folk, blues, and any number of points in between. As a songwriter, Case is a master storyteller with a special understanding of underdogs and lost souls, and his direct, passionate style as a singer and guitarist has served him well in electric and acoustic contexts. He first gained a reputation with the taut power pop bands the Nerves and the Plimsouls, but he moved from rock to a more acoustic-oriented sound with his 1986 solo debut Peter Case. While occasionally detouring back into rock and pop on LPs like 1992's Six Pack of Love and 2010's Wig!, he's always returned to blues and folk influences, as on 2007's Let Us Now Praise Sleepy John and 2023's Doctor Moan.
