Peacefield is an American band. == History == This Texas-based band began in suburban Pittsburgh, with Jeff and Don Glatz, singer-songwriter brothers and pals, raised in a big family full of cops, comic books, the love of music (lots of music) and classic TV. With their harmonious blend of roots rock and alt/folk, Peacefield built a loyal following, playing shows in Pittsburgh, and receiving positive feedback and encouragement from local entertainment writers. After a four-song demo EP quickly sold out, Peacefield recorded their first full-length CD, ''Narragansett'' (Green Sun Records). Critics praised the indie endeavor, and a song from the album was selected for Guide Wire Radio, which featured unsigned artists and was broadcast nationwide. The CD opened some doors, and Peacefield played shows with 10,000 Maniacs, early Goo Goo Dolls, and Vigilantes of Love, receiving airplay on radio stations in Pittsburgh, Washington DC, Cleveland and New York, to name a few. Peacefield's follow-up, ''Curses & Calamity'' (King Mouse Records), was produced by Mike Ofca and Greg Joseph of The Clarks. The song "Warmer Side Of The Street" was featured in the major motion picture ''Kingpin'', and their track "Little Mistress" was featured in the PBS documentary ''The Class of 2000''. In late 2006, Peacefield founders Jeff Glatz and Don loaded up their bags and moved to the Hill Country, just outside of San Antonio, Texas. With a new lineup of seasoned, backing musicians, they began playing some live shows, and released the melodically quilted, six-song EP ''Feeling Dull'', which met with local success and great reviews. With that momentum, Peacefield got started on a new, full-length record. The band chose acclaimed producer Bill Palmer of Frogville Records (www.frogvilleplanet.com), to take the reins on the project. The result is their latest, ''Stars Away'', a sweet, heady mix of tunes that Robert Bartosh, of ''Roots Music Report'', calls "unblemished" and "ingeniously performed" with "a new feel that is unconventional and captivating." Peacefield has been busy with a healthy schedule of both acoustic and full-band live shows. These melodic adventurers – Jeff Glatz (vocals, acoustic guitar), Don Glatz (vocals, acoustic guitar, harmonica), all-around crowd-pleaser Paul Manz (lead electric and acoustic guitars), the classically trained, multi-instrumentalist Marc Utter (bass), "Master of Keys" R. Bruce Phillips (keyboards), and Brent "The Hitman" Martin (drums) – are ready for liftoff. Look for both Jeff & Don Glatz solo projects due out in 2014!! www.jeffglatz.com 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Peacefield (band)」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
