Peter Reeves

Growing up in the Victorian river town of Newbridge, on the banks of the Loddon, Peter has done the hard yards working the land and decades of touring the regional beer barns and taverns. To quote a line from his ripping tune “Working Man”: ‘swelt in the heat, drown in the rain, paid my dues, time and time again’. Peter’s debut EP “Working Man” was released in 2021 which featured back to his roots songs “Up The River” and “Country Town”, tunes that established his ability to craft country songs with cinematic realism while maintaining a his cheeky sense humour.

“Beer O’Clock” is the first single from his upcoming full length album. He is supported by a stellar backing band including Nashville guitarist Rick Plant (Sherry Rich) and Douglas Lee Robertson (Ice-Cream Hands) on bass and drummer Geoff Barnes (P76). As Peter explains, the song is not so much about drinking but more about downtime, taking a break from your busy life and being with your loved ones. The album was produced and recorded at Mountain Sound Studio at Hanging Rock by John Baxter (Prettymess, Five Mile Sniper) and is due out late 2024 on Small Sanctuary Records.
