TRIXTER Frontman Talks Reunion, New Music

December 12, 2007

Music Mayhem recently conducted an interview with TRIXTER frontman Pete Loran. An excerpt from the question-and-answer session follows:

Music Mayhem: Now the big news just released.... There is going to be a TRIXTER reunion. How did this come about? Who made the first move?

Pete: Last January Steve Brown and a couple of mutual friends of ours went to the NAMM convention in California...huge convention that goes on every year. I heard they were going and invited myself and met them out there. This convention takes up three floors of the convention center, it's really big. As Steve and I walked around checking out the show, people were coming up to us and saying, "Hey you guys were in TRIXTER," and things like that.. It made us think.... and being that now bands from that era are going out and doing shows and getting treated great... we figured what better time than now for a reunion.

Music Mayhem: Will it be all original members, PJ, Steve, Mark...

Pete: It will be all original members. We all agreed from the start that original members is the only way that we will do it.

Music Mayhem: Will there be a new album?

Pete: There will be a new CD... lots of live songs on there along with a new, or several new songs. We will see... Lots of stuff to coincide with the shows.

Music Mayhem: Have you started recording anything yet?

Pete: Yes, lots of it has been finished. Some things still yet to be finished.

Music Mayhem: Where are you all living now?

Pete: In a van down by the river... Ha ha… I'm in Phoenix! Those guys are all in Jersey.

Music Mayhem: Any touring plans?

Pete: TRIXTER 2008! .... Rocklahoma?????

Music Mayhem: How will the music have changed since you all went separate ways and have grown?

Pete: Without a doubt it will be better. Everyone has grown musically. Seriously, I'm singing better than I ever have.

Music Mayhem: Can you still sing all those oldie but goodies? Your voice seems to not be as high these days.

Pete: I'll be just fine. It's that style of music that has a higher range of singing. Normally I choose not to sing so high. It's no big deal... a bottle of anything and a glazed donut and I'm good to go!! The screaming here and there may be a challenge... Ha ha!
