Pete Wallace: From The Back Seat
2021
This album is a collection of poetry throughout 2019-2020 from my poetry book that was always in the back seat of my car about many nights of memories, farewells, happiness, sadness, pondering, world watching and so much more was presented to me. After finishing the poems I was listening to American Prayer that the Doors did with Jim's poetry and made me realize I wanted to try something like that with my own twist.
I wanted it to make you remember the walls of my room as the reverb echoed off of the bodies within it during our stay in Newport, I wanted it to be alive. Not just another poetry album with silence and air but moving around the room inviting you in.
I give you... "From My Back Seat"
Pete Wallace: Highlander
2026
This album is a collection of celtic songs both new and old that I have written over the past few years and is a dedication to my deeply rooted heritage on both sides of my family.
A dedication to all the warriors, poets, musicians, passionate seekers and more spirits that live within my bloodline.
I wanted a celtic handpan album so badly as I haven't heard many and I figured if anyone could do it, I can.
So I did with nothing stopping me.
And here we are. I'm smiling as I write this.
Tied within are countless hours of recording for 5 months, researching celtic songs, frustrations of said recordings, laughter, gaming for inspiration (shout out to Baulder's Gate 3 and Skyrim) and J.R.R Tolkien's Unfinished stories and late night talks with some good handpan mentors and friends.
