The legendary Portland, OR singer songwriter releases new album All My Friends Are Ghosts. September 2020. As Krebs describes, “This album has been a labor of love, 20 years in the making.” All My Friends Are Ghosts represents the past 20 years of Pete’s life, a period of time full of challenges, including a cancer diagnosis in 2013 which was a close call that changed everything for him. “Everyone has a reckoning in life. We coast for awhile until something wakes us up and we have to change,” Krebs explains. The outpouring of support he received is a testament to how beloved the songwriter is among his community. Krebs has been a seminal member of the Portland, OR music scene since the late 80s and his bands (especially SubPop trailblazers Hazel) have helped define Portland’s musical landscape. The body of work from his many different projects - Golden Delicious, The Stolen Sweets, Pete Krebs and his Portland Playboys, The Catnip Brothers and his solo career with his backing band The Gossamer Wings - have made him a respected elder statesman of the local scene. His musical influence extends beyond Portland, with a catalog of a couple dozen albums released on Sub Pop, Rough Trade and Portland’s own Cavity Search Records. He has recorded with Elliott Smith, banjo iconoclast Danny Barnes and Ben Shepherd of Soundgarden, among others.
