Door County Outpost Presents Peter Mulvey

Peter Mulvey will take the stage at the Door County Outpost on Friday, July 25 at 7:30 pm at the Door County Outpost, located at 4690 Rainbow Ridge Court, Egg Harbor, as part of “The Art of Music” series.

Mulvey began as a self-described "city kid" from Milwaukee. He played, wrote and sang in bands while studying theatre at Marquette University. After graduating, he traveled to Ireland, where he learned the trade of busker on the streets of Dublin. Returning to the U.S. a few years later, he settled in Boston, building an audience through street and subway performing, while also immersing himself in the thriving musical community. Since his 2000 release The Trouble with Poets, Mulvey has found a home with the venerable indie label Signature Sounds Recordings. His most recent albums for the Massachusetts label were The Knuckleball Suite, Kitchen Radio, the collaborative Redbird (with label-mates Kris Delmhorst and Jeffrey Foucault), and Ten Thousand Mornings, an album of cover songs recorded entirely in the subways of Boston.

Mulvey’s latest album, Notes from Elsewhere, is a retrospective collection of the very best songs he has written and performed over his 15-year recording career. Recorded solo in a studio, these are fresh takes on songs that have become fan and critic favorites over the years. While Mulvey’s previous band-backed albums showcased the songs, these solo versions allow each song to shine on its own, demonstrating his strengths as a songwriter.

Always looking for ways to further immerse himself in language, art and music, Mulvey has also scored music for theatre and modern dance, as well as has had numerous songs featured in film and television.

All tickets are $10 at the door. For more information please call 920.493.5979 or 920.868.4321.
