On any weekend in the early '90s, almost every music venue in Seattle was a mess of flannel, long hair, and distorted reverb. But if that wasn't your mood, you could always find one or two boot-scooting bar bands like Kitchen Radio, Lazy Susan, and Ramadillo blowing the roof off some dirty little bar. Out of that small alt-country sub-scene arose one of my favorite singer / songwriters (and high school chum) Pete Droge. In the late '90s and early 2000s, Pete had an impressive solo career with three albums and a fourth with the supergroup, The Thornes. Pete also toured with Tom Petty, performed on David Letterman and Jon Stewart, and was in Cameron Crowe's "Almost Famous". At the height of his fame, Pete withdrew from the limelight to focus on producing, film scoring, and his mental health. Now, ten years later, Pete is back with a new album called "Fade Away Blue".
