THE PROMISE

Hi!
Thanks for checking out my little corner of CD Baby.
If you're like me, you're completely fatigued with all of the over-blown 3rd person hype that exists in the world of independent music nowadays (not to mention the major music industry players). You know the kind of propaganda I'm talking about,...flowery and poetic descriptions of "talent", and mind numbing cross-blending genre hybrids designed to pull you in. You won't find any of that crap here.

FIVE CORNERS, is my debut CD. I think it turned out pretty good. By that, I mostly mean in my heart of hearts, and based on my musical sensibilities, and reputation as a tough grader,...it doesn't suck. Some really fine moments were captured, and I think the songs hold up well. Check it out for yourself by clicking on the audio samples provided here, or better yet visit www.petevash.com to learn more about the songs and download a few mp3's for optimum audio quality.

THE MUSIC

I would most closely align myself with the musical traditions of Leadbelly, Woody Guthrie, Pete Seeger, Bob Dylan, John Lennon, Crosby, Stills, and Nash, Neil Young, Jackson Browne, Bruce Springsteen, and Bruce Cockburn.

THE COMMITMENT

50 of the profits from the sale of FIVE CORNERS will go to charity and non-profit organizations. Forever. No catches, no creative book-keeping, no kidding. Best of all, you can help decide where the money goes. Visit www.petevash.com for details.

THIS JUST IN:

The song that has created such a buzz for its in your face political content, sonic crunch, and all around weirdness; ON THE TOPIC OF ANI DIFRANCO, POST MODERNISM, AND THE LIBERATION OF SINGULARITIES, is now available as a free mp3 download at www.petevash.com. CHECK IT OUT! You may not agree with the views expressed in this song, but I'm hopeful that we can at least agree to disagree. Let me know what you think...drop a note to me at petevash@yahoo.com.

take care,
