Richard Bush and Peace Creeps with Scott McClatchy
October 11 @ 7:30 pm - 10:00 pm
$20 – $25
The Peace Creeps is the current musical project featuring former A’s captivating frontman Richard Bush. Richard and his A’s were the darlings of Philly in the ‘70s and early ‘80s and had the hits “After Last Night” and “A Woman’s Got The Power”, which was later recorded by both Clarence Clemons and Jennifer Holliday. They released two albums on Arista Records and toured nationally, but they disbanded due to disputes with their record company. After that Bush had a few other bands and then took a long hiatus to write and record. Finally, along with guitarist John Marchiano, bassist Roy Fisher and drummer Jeff Pancoast, The Peace Creeps were born. Bush and song writing partner, AJay McLaughlin’s clever lyricism, along with their Elvis Costello–like wit, Faces–like looseness and the pop sensibilities of the Beatles are reasons for their appeal.
With his 6th release, critically acclaimed singer/songwriter, Scott McClatchy, returns to his Americana roots. Joined by his longtime bandmates, Kirk Brewster (guitar & vocals), Chris Erikson (guitar vocals), and their newest member, PEEKS! on vocals, the band returns to the late 60’s sounds of acoustic guitars and layered harmonies. With each member taking a turn at lead vocals, the eclectic set blends the roots of each songwriter, along with a modern-day mix of folk, county, blues & Rock & Roll.
