Peter Wolf was the longtime lead singer of rock's J. Geils Band, and he had a hand as writer in many of their hit songs (although not "Centerfold"). His charismatic stage presence was integral to that band's success, which crossed geographic and racial lines. Peter went on to a great solo career that has included such radio-friendly hits as "Come As You Are" as well as deeper album tracks that showed his passion for classic soul and R&B. Now,Peter continues his musical journey with "A Cure for Loneliness," his eighth solo release. The 12-song album ranks with the artist's most adventurous and accomplished work, showcasing his irrepressible charisma while encompassing his effortless affinity for country, blues, R&B and rock 'n' roll. "A Cure for Loneliness" includes nine new Wolf originals, four of them co-written with Grammy/Academy Award-winning songwriter Will Jennings. The material ranges from the loose-limbed gospel boogie of "How Do You" to the rousing rock of "Wasting Time" to the acoustic reverie of "Some Other Time, Some Other Place" to the swinging big-band swagger of "Mr. Mistake" to the introspective balladry of "Peace of Mind" and "Fun For A While"—plus an audacious bluegrass reworking of the classic J. Geils anthem "Love Stinks," and the stirring soul ballad "It's Raining," which Wolf co-wrote with R&B pioneer Don Covay. "I see this album as a continuation of a body of work that I've been creating for a long, long time," Peter says. "Each album is a challenge and every one of them has been a learning experience. I think that they've become more personal and revealing as I've continued. I still feel the way I felt when I started out decades ago, I'm just trying to prevail and continue to grow as an artist … and to keep rolling on with music as a cure for loneliness." The Ark is proud to present a legend of rock music, up close and personal, for two intimate evenings with his band The Midnight Travelers.
