Wiretree is singer, songwriter and multi-instrumentalist Kevin Peroni. He began working as Wiretree in 1994 crafting songs in his bedroom studio while holding a daytime job Austin, TX. After writing for several years, songs began to accumulate, resulting his first self-titled EP, released in early 2005, essentially a sample of homemade demos. His eagerly awaited full-length album Bouldin, released in early 2007.
Growing up in Corpus Christi, TX Peroni played guitar, keyboards, and/or bass in a succession of local bands in his teen years, influenced by The La's, The Beatles and later Radiohead, Sparklehorse and Jason Falkner.
Absolute Power Pop - "Things start off with "Big Coat", an excellent shuffle that's instantly catchy. Meanwhile, "Secret Law" sounds like Tom Petty meets The Pernice Brothers; "Feel Me" has that "Blood and Roses" feel to it; "Don't Need It" is an untempo marvel that has an early Posies sound; "Notion" is a great keyboard and acoustic guitar-driven number; and I'm not sure I'll hear a more beautiful melody the rest of the year than the one belonging to "Whirl", although the closing track that follows it, "Summercity", comes damn close."
