About Peter Holsapple
Peter Livingston Holsapple (born February 19, 1956) is an American musician who, along with Chris Stamey, formed the dB's, a jangle-pop band from Winston-Salem, North Carolina. He became the band's principal songwriter and singer after Stamey's departure. The band, with Stamey back in the fold, reformed with new material in 2005–2006. After the dB's disbanded in 1988, Holsapple played as an auxiliary musician with R.E.M. and Hootie & the Blowfish, before joining the Continental Drifters, a rock band originating from Los Angeles. In 1997, he released his first solo album, Out of the Way. He followed it up twenty-one years later with Game Day and with Face of 68 in 2025. Stamey left the band after their second album, at which point Holsapple became the primary singer-songwriter.
