PETER GABRIEL BIOGRAPHY |

BORN: February 13, 1950, London, England
Peter Gabriel has been writing songs for some 30 years. Before he hit the 'big time', he started writing songs while at about 11 or 12 years old. "The first song I wrote was called 'Sammy The Slug.' Everyone else was writing about girls, and I was writing about slugs, which shows what I was interested in." (PG quote).
TWhile attending Charterhouse school in Surrey, England, he met up with Tony Banks, Mike Rutherford and Anthony Phillips and together started the band Genesis. Their first single "The Silent Sun" was 'on the air' in 1968. Anthony became ill and had to leave Genesis so the other band members went 'looking for someone' to replace him and the drummer, and in the fall of 1970 Steve Hackett and Phil Collins joined up. From 1967-1975 Peter Gabriel was part of this Genesis progressive song writing collaboration with songs ranging from classical and mythological themes to the humorous and absurd. |
