bio(s)
Pete Galub cites a diverse range of musical influences from the likes of Thelonius Monk to 60's and 80's melodic guitar pop music a la the Byrds, Big Star, and the Chills, as well as folk/country tunesmiths like the Louvin Brothers and Michael Hurley, and raw punk groups like Wire and the Undertones. Pete has had the pleasure of sharing stages with the likes of Gillian Welch and Liz Phair and his music has received radio-play in the United States and Ireland, where he also lived for a year in 1999.

Chris Moore- drums,vocals- Originally from Detroit, Chris first made his mark in the early 80's hardcore scene drumming for the seminal band Negative Approach. In the mid-90's , he moved to Brooklyn and has since developed into one of the most original songwriters in the NYC folk scene, and worked with the likes of Anton Fier (Golden Palominos). He recently released his third solo record "Joy & Abandon". www.mooresong.com

Django Haskins- bass, vocals - A great singer/songwriter in his own right, Django's most recent record "Laying Low and Inbetween" was produced by Don Fleming (Teenage Fanclub, Sonic Youth) and praised by Billborad magazine as "a project that demands the attention of anyone who wonders why rock music is so darn tedious these days." www.djangohaskins.com

Chris Cunningham produced the record. Chris is extremely diverse, having worked as a guitarist for James Chance (James White and the Blacks), Marianne Faithful and Marshall Crenshaw.

A strange cast of characters graces "Boy Gone Wrong", the debut record by Brooklyn-based songwriter Pete Galub. Between members of Pete’s band, the Annuals, and producer Chris Cunningham the musicians on this record have been around and played with the likes of Marianne Faithful, hardcore band Negative Approach, no-waver James Chance and power popper Marshall Crenshaw. And the results are still not at all what you’d expect; a very refreshing dose of heartfelt, well-crafted and meticulously arranged indie pop/folk songs a la Big Star, Robyn Hitchcock, Will Oldham, and East River Pipe. With "Boy Gone Wrong", Pete Galub establishes himself as one of the most interesting new songwriters to come around in a while.
