Peter Case – Late Show

About

Peter Case's independent single A Million Miles Away entered the Billboard charts and remains a garage rock standard performed by bands around the world. The band performed in the cult classic film Valley Girl and the Nerves and Plimsouls' timeless teenage rock and roll continues to appeal to fans of each new generation. After the Plimsouls, Case rediscovered his musical roots on his self-titled solo debut, produced by T Bone Burnett. The New York Times declared Peter Case the best album of 1986. It earned a five-star Rolling Stone review and a Grammy nomination. As one of the first songwriters of his generation to turn from rock music toward an acoustic sound, Case also helped usher in what became known as Americana music.
