Guitarist, vocalist, and songwriter Peter Mayer, of the Peter Mayer Group, has melded a unique and multi-faceted writing style, a distinctive voice, and inspired musicianship to create compelling and accessible music that is electrifying in live performance. Mayer has culled influences from his childhood in India that ranged from traditional Indian music to The Beatles, and from his studying and teaching Jazz guitar at Webster University in St. Louis, MO. Add the many years that he has shared the stage with Jimmy Buffett’s Coral Reefer Band, James Taylor, Mac McAnally, Sonny Landreth, Don Henley and others, and you begin to trace the musical storyline of the Peter Mayer Group. He is currently the lead guitarist for the Jimmy Buffett Coral Reefer Band.
The Peter Mayer Group is an inventive ensemble that features R. Scott Bryan (Sheryl Crowe, Mama’s Pride, Jeff Coffin) on percussion, guitar, and vocals; Marc Torlina (Chuck Berry, Neil Sedaka, Treme Terra) on bass and vocals; Maggie Estes (Buddy Spicher, Leahy, Mike Snider) on Violin and Mandolin; and Chris Walters (Bela Fleck, Alabama, JD Souther) on Keyboards. Between them they boast an extensive performing and songwriting portfolio with experience in numerous styles ranging from jazz, world, country, rock, bluegrass, classical, and gospel music.
