Peter Carriveau is a singer-songwriter living in Monmouth, Maine. Inspired by the Beatles, Peter formed his first musical group with his brothers at age 9. This led to a series of bands that helped pay his way through college. After grad school Peter stopped performing publicly, and taught History for 34 years. Upon his retirement from teaching, Carriveau began playing again as a soloist at area venues.
Peter’s music and writing are influenced by elements of Americana, folk, and rock, from artists such as John Prine, Bob Dylan, Bruce Springsteen, and David Mallett. He is an enthusiastic performer as a soloist, whether performing original compositions or interpreting the songs of others. Peter also plays in a trio (“The Boondock Sinners”) during summers with his snowbird friends Paul and Donna Landry Duffy.
