My new EP "Sea Of White" was released Summer 2014. Please visit me at: www.peterbuzzelle.com for more info.
“Sea Of White might be the best EP of 2014 to date and opener "I'm Gonna Know You" might be the best power ballad I've heard in years, with a swelling, catchy chorus, while "Till Death Do Us Part" and "Happiness and Misery" are a couple of excellent Posies/Matthew Sweet-styled rockers, "Our Life is the Song" closes things out in hooky fashion.”

"Perfection exists. I have come across it in the form of five wonderful pop songs, 5 stars" Sea Of White EP by Peter Buzzelle
Pop Phil - Rate Our Music
“Museum Of is full of Buzzelle's astute and catchy as hell power pop, and at times it reminds us of the finest moments in the aforementioned genre such as The Posies' Frosting On The Beater, Matthew Sweet's Girlfriend, and Big Star's landmark #1 Record, while creating something engaging, original, and completely addicting.”
Bryan Hamill - The Ash Gray Proclamation, May 2012
“More than a decade after he left the Northwest and the Olympia-based noise-pop band he founded, Frequency dB, Peter Buzzelle is poised for a renaissance. Buzzelle delivers crystal-clear vocals over power-pop melodies with alarming ease.”
Michael Marotta - The Boston Phoenix, Jan 2012
"Everyone should pick up Pete's new album "Museum Of". It's one of the best indie albums I've heard in a very long time!
Fantastic!" www.rocknrolljihad.com Jan, 2012
Chad Von Haden - Rock Radio Podcast
"It's interesting with Peter. He seems like he's pretty straightforward as an artist, but it's not true. He's a bit left of center which, of course, we always like. We won't hold it against him that he's from 'Bastin' (Boston)….probably a Sox fan."
Billy Thin - Songshooter, Dec 2011
“Twelve years in the making, Peter Buzzelle’s debut album, To Telescope, is finally beginning to see the light of day… and what a fine day it is.”
Julia R. DeStefano - The Noise-Boston, May 2011
“Peter's music is beautifully fluid, almost liquid perfection, fronted by guitar chords that are both exaggerated and mellow all at the same time.”
New Music Michael Blog, Dec 1, 2010
“We cant quite put our 'finger on it' but there is something about Peter that gets our attention here at Beehive Candy in the crowded world of indie rock”

"Just try listening to 'To Telescope' by Peter Buzzelle and not get the urge for clove cigarettes.”
