About The Artist

Peter Mayer is a renowned singer, songwriter and guitarist who has shared the stage with the likes of James Taylor, Paul McCartney, Don Henly, Paul Simon, Dave Matthews, and countless others during his 35 years as guitarist for Jimmy Buffett's Coral Reefer Band. Along the way, he has released 25 of his own albums, including five christmas albums.

In 1999, Peter and his brother Jim, who also served as Jimmy Buffett's long-time bass player, began work on their first Christmas album, “Stars and Promises.” They recorded their favorite traditional carols along with their own original Christmas songs that, over the years, have become favorites of their audiences across the country.

This year's peformance--titled Harmony--will be in two parts, featuring an intimate "unplugged" acoustic set alongside his usual spellbinding band, with a few special guests along the way. This is truly a Christmas show like no other.
