ABOUT PETER MAYER:

He writes songs for a small planet–songs about interconnectedness and the human journey–songs about life on earth and the mysterious and wondrous fact of our existence. He also writes songs about dress hats, pumpkins and pajamas, and other important stuff. His work has been included in song books, church hymnals, and folk radio playlists across the country. Peter has 11 albums to his credit, and has sold over 100,000 of them. He lives in Stillwater, MN with his wife and two daughters. Click here to hear a Spotify playlist.
