Music press is embracing Peter Mulvey’s new album ‘Are You Listening?’ –
out last week on Righteous Babe Records and produced by Ani DiFranco –
and Peter’s 25th anniversary as a recording artist. Paste Magazine posted a video session yesterday.
Here’s what we’re hearing:

can play some badass guitar, sing to touch your heart, and write a song
that will knock you down, and by knock you down, I mean lift you up.”

drum, even when there isn’t one... With ‘Are You Listening?” it’s hard
to stop.”
