Jim Peterik – PlanetMosh exclusive interview

Recently I had the great pleasure of reviewing ‘Risk Everything‘, the latest album from songwriting legend Jim Peterik and – despite the pair initially meeting almost 40 years ago – his first collaboration with singer Marc Scherer.

It was an even greater pleasure to be offered the chance to chat with the man himself…

Click on the stream below to hear what the man responsible for some of the greatest AOR anthems of all time had to say about himself, his latest project, his pending returning to the UK and what fans can expect from his solo appearance at the new Rockingham festival in October, and how the fire still burns in his heart as he approaches his 65th birthday.
