Discovered playing on the streets by songwriter Jack Lee, Peter Case went on, along with Lee and Paul Collins to form the seminal power-pop band The Nerves. Later when the Nerves broke up Collins went on to form The Beat and Peter Case went on, along with Austinite "Fast" Eddie Munoz, to form the power pop band The Plimsouls. Case and The Plimsouls gained fame penning the song "Million Miles Away" and performing in the film "Valley Girl" before dissolving, though they still get together every once in a while.
Peter Case still performs as a solo artist, and not pigeonholed in one genre or another slides effortlessly back and forth between bittersweet power pop ballads, classic Americana, and southern blues. To listen to the interview click on the player link on the "continued" page at the bottom.
