Peter Frampton

Peter Kenneth Frampton (born April 22, 1950 in Beckenham, Kent) is a Grammy winning English musician, best known today for his solo work in the mid-1970s as an "arena rocker".  His first taste of fame, however, came as a member of The Herd, with which he became a teen idol in Britain.  He then worked with Steve Marriott (of Small Faces) in Humble Pie, as well as on albums by Harry Nilsson, Jim Price, Jerry Lee Lewis, and George Harrison's solo masterpiece All Things Must Pass.  This all changed quite dramatically with his breakthrough best-selling live album, Frampton Comes Alive! (1976), widely considered a near-iconic 70s album and one of the most acclaimed live rock albums ever. "Baby, I Love Your Way" and "Show Me the Way" became almost immediate hits, and "Do You Feel Like We Do," despite its length, also became a huge favorite. The latter 2 also featured his now-famous use of the talk box, esp the 14-minute epic "Do You Feel Like We Do".   On September 12, 2006, A&M released his newest album, an instrumental work titled "Fingerprints". His band consists of drummer Shawn Fichter, guitarist Gordon Kennedy, bassist John Regan, and keyboardist/guitarist Rob Arthur, and guest artists such as members of Pearl Jam, Hank Marvin, and his bassist on Frampton Comes Alive Stanley Sheldon.  On February 11 2009, "Fingerprints" was awarded the 2009 Grammy for Best Pop Instrumental Album.  In February 2011, he also appeared on the Chicago based PBS television show Soundstage.  See Peter Frampton LIVE!  Purchase your Peter Frampton tickets today!
