Internationally Acclaimed Bluesman - Pete Cornelius
Pete Cornelius is a performer whose guitar work is in the best tradition of what Rock and Blues Guitar is all about.  Listen to the fat, fat sound of this Nationally Traveled Australian's licks especially in the number called Running In The Red.  You may also want to pay attention to the tune, Rock and Roll.  Firmly rooted with a foot way in the blues, you will also detect some heavy influence in Texas Swing too, like in the track entitled, Bungalo Party.  To date this Great Stage Talent has 5 Albums to his credit and he's still in his early twenties.  These album credits include Creatures Of The Night, Freerange, Gonna Burn, Gotta Live and Live At Narooma (all distributed nationally throughout Australia or as the Aussies like to call it, "OZ") which was recorded during  Australia's Venerable Great Southern Blues and Rockabilly Festival in 1999.  Still more to his credit, he was only fifteen when this occurred and he was already playing in front of thousands of people!  No small feat, wouldn't you say?  But not only is Pete a Great Guitarist he's a very solid vocalist as well, delivering a strong, smooth and matured tone that's a tad reminiscent of the earlier days of Jim Peterich during Peterich's rise with the band, The Ides of March and their hit tune Vehicle.

Pete Cornelius is a veteran very early in his career which is still in it's blossoming stage.  Here's a quick list of just some of his Australian credits to date of which he's a regular performer with his band called The Deville's.  Pete Cornelius and The Deville's have performed at Byron Bay Blues and Roots Festival, The Great Southern Blues and Rockabilly Festival in Narooma, The Broadbeach Blues Festival, The Australian Blues Festival in Goulburn, The Forth Valley Blues Fest along with a stack of others. These are some of the biggest and most prestigious Stages in "OZ"!  His USA tours have taken him to places such as The Prairie Dog Blues Festival in Wisconsin, Eddy Clearwaters,  Reservation Blues - Chicago, The Slippery Noodle - Indianapolis, and just to round some of it out, he's also performed at Chicago's House of Blues.  As well, he's performed extensively as a Solo Acoustic Act in the British Isles. Still more to his credit, he's endorsed by Fender Guitars, Australia.

So as you can clearly hear from the sounds of the player you're listening to, Pete is a Sure Bet that will thrill whatever audience he's in front of.  He comes to Worldwide TMA highly recommended and we're thrilled to bring him onboard.  As well, we couldn't agree with all of those glowing recommendations more if we tried!
