Mike Peters

Known in early stages because of their 19th century cavalry garb and absurd levels of hairspray, the Alarm parlayed solid, folk-inspired rock anthems into an eight-year, five-album career. Fronted by Mike Peters, the Security alarm strike hard with Declaration in 1984, and constructed upon that album’s achievement with Power and Eye FROM THE Hurricane, quickly two of the very most popular albums from the middle-’80s “substitute” rock motion. Like their peers U2, INXS and R.E.M., the Security alarm discovered themselves poised for superstardom by 1987. But following albums Modification and Raw didn’t capture the creativity from the Welsh band’s large worldwide viewers, and Peters eventually bowed out in 1991. Four years following the breakup from the Security alarm, Mike Peters finally released his first single album–in the united kingdom just–1995’s Breathe. Which was soon accompanied by Second Era, a assortment of Security alarm B-sides and unreleased paths which Peters rerecorded and released towards the Security alarm fan club. After that, while he was producing 1996’s Feel Free of charge, his second single record, Peters was misdiagnosed with tumor. In nov 1997, Mike Peters produced Rise, the to begin his three single outings to get wide-spread US distribution. Much like his prior two albums, Rise includes optimistic tracks of wish and freedom, similar to the types Peters made well-known in the Security alarm. Joining him within the studio for a couple of the periods was ex-Cult guitarist Billy Duffy; today, they’ve formed a fresh music group, Colorsound, with programs to record their first record in early 1999.
