Emerging on the scene with his debut EP, Philadelphia based solo artist Viv Peyrat is determined to reach music fans across the globe with his fusion of harmonious and breezy vocals backed by acoustics, electrics, and chops that bring to life his style of pop, rock, funk, blues, & R&B with a creative spin. Viv also brings vast experience as a stage & studio guitarist with a repertoire and technique well beyond his years, he has mastered the art form; from spacious soaring solos to intricate, melodic lines.
Comfortable on the stage at an early age, Viv began playing in various bands and advanced to Guitar Center’s Guitarmageddon regional finals when he was only 16. Throughout the years Viv has played with various bands at popular events including South by Southwest, the Emergenza festival, and the Fourth of July Festival at FDR Skatepark to name a few. Viv has had the pleasure of recording with acts like modern rockers Johnny One Match (formerly of Straitlaced), cabaret trip-pop artist Mia Sable (LA Music Awards Female Singer & Songwriter of the Year), and hardcore skatepunks Leiana (featuring skatepunk icon Chuck Treece).
Viv was born in Paris, France and was raised in Philadelphia before moving to Los Angeles to play the guitar professionally which allowed him to blend the best of east and west coast music seamlessly. Inspired by his father a session drummer in France who got Viv interested in music at an early age, Viv began to take up playing the guitar seriously by the time he was thirteen. Viv notes his greatest influences as L.A.’s Michael Landau and Steve Lukather along with Dann Huff, Eric Clapton, and David Gilmour. Leading up to becoming a solo artist ready to release his debut solo album, Viv attended the Musician’s Institute but really cultivated his craft after playing with different bands along the way. Now Viv is proud to introduce his debut EP with newly released singles “In My Way”, “Could be you and me”, & “Speed of Light”.
