While studying at Arizona State University, Peg began singing and playing trumpet for the group “St. Andrew Singers” of Mesa, Arizona. After moving to California, Peg played trumpet for “Praise Symphony Orchestra” in Costa Mesa, under the direction of Artist and Songwriter Peter Jacobs. It was there she began playing acoustic guitar. While living in Alabama for the next ten years, Peg performed regionally, singing and playing guitar at various functions, including the annual “Knox Concert Series”. She made her first solo recording album in 1986. She sang as back up singer for Larnelle Harris, of Nashville, on his recorded song, “Come Thou Almighty King”, and performed on the annually televised Dove Awards Show with Carol Lawrence and other Gospel Music performers, before joining the band “Victory” as singer and guitarist. After moving to Arizona in 1991, Peg formed the contemporary acoustic band, “Undivided”, and performed regionally for the next two years, opening up for such groups as the “Imperials” and Jeff Fenholt (former Black Sabbath lead singer), singing back-up for David Meece, and performing with Joseph Garlington. After creating a duet with KGMS radio personality Cindy Stanfill, Peg and Cindy sang regularly with KGMS sponsorship at restaurants and clubs, corporate functions, conferences, schools, and charity groups for six years. Peg then formed another acoustic rock band, “Decree” and opened for Joy Williams in 2002. Entering the field of worship in 1992, Peg began to lead and train worship groups, traveling about as a worship evangelist, and while currently working as Music Director for a contemporary church in Ramstein, Germany, she teaches and speaks on music and worship, performs at schools, and leads music/worship at various churches, conferences, and retreats. Peg sometimes travels with her current acoustic rock band, “Audience of One”. |
