Bio
Live Bait was founded in the early eighties as far as anyone can recollect. At first we could not afford real instruments! Pete and Gregg shared a tagboard copy of a long necked Stella. It would be years before Pete would learn to chord and Gregg would learn to pick. Dave meanwhile made steady progress on his dung colored three quarter stand up bass. In the early years audible mistakes were rarely heard. But with fame and fortune they were able to purchase real wooden guitars and a bass.
Following the purchase of their first real instruments their musical career takes off. Although they rocketed forward on a steep learning curve, their ability to "fake it" holds them in good stead.
They've played many venues and festivals in the midwest including "On The Waterfront" in Rockford, IL (5 times, winning two "Best Of Rockford" Awards), Heritage Fest in Downers Grove, IL, Two Way Street Coffee House, Cafe Carpe in Ft. Atkinson, WI, Long Grove Applefest, many, many others can be seen on the Live Bait website.
