|
“I love how John sounds on ‘Fool Is The Last One To Know.’ It’s a very fun song to play and sing live because I feel like I’m at the Grand Ole Opry. This song showcases Bill Cowsill and Jeffrey Hatcher’s love for country swing of the 1950s. It’s a true duet honoring some of the classic country duos, like Tammy and George.” – VICKI PETERSON

It’s wonderful to see Peterson and Cowsill on stage together; not only is their affection for each other beautifully evident, but their harmonies are gorgeous.” |
BIOGRAPHYVicki Peterson of The Bangles (whose work includes #1 hit “Walk Like An Egyptian” and several other Top 10 songs, such as “Eternal Flame” which is the biggest single by an all-female band in history) teams up with John Cowsill, drummer/vocalist for The Beach Boys for over 23 years and original member of the platinum-selling family band, The Cowsills to lovingly present their debut Americana album comprised of songs written by John’s late brothers, Barry and Bill Cowsill titled, Long After The Fire.

Peterson later wrote and performed with her good friend (and eventual sister-in-law) Susan Cowsill as The Psycho Sisters. The duo soon found themselves absorbed into the critically acclaimed New Orleans’ songwriters collective The Continental Drifters and remain with them today. Throughout the 90’s, Vicki stayed active appearing on albums with Tom Petty, John Doe, Hootie & The Blowfish, Belinda Carlisle and also toured with The Go-Go’s on their 1994-1995 reunion tour. The Bangles reunited in the 21st century to release four more albums. At 7 years old, John began working in clubs, singing and playing drums with his family. The Cowsills became a worldwide sensation in the late 1960’s playing The Ed Sullivan Show, and Johnny Carson Show programs both 3 times, The Johnny Cash Show twice and enjoyed several Top 20 hits including “Hair” (#1 in four countries and #2 on US Billboard) and “The Rain, The Park, & Other Things” (#2 on US Billboard with over 3 million copies sold). In 1981, John landed on the Tommy Tutone hit, “867-5309 (Jenny).” He also toured with Jan and Dean before becoming a mainstay of the Beach Boys touring band, playing guitar, piano, and finally sitting at the drum kit for over two decades playing an average of 180 concerts per year.
