After departing progressive band Genesis Peter Gabriel went on to pursue his thoughtful solo project. His first four albums were self titled and are known either by I, II, III or also by Car, Scratch, Melt and the last one being also self titled but known as Security in the U.S his other albums were titled by one word either Us, So, or Up. So saw the biggest success and grew his fan base to not just Genesis fans. Peter's love for world music and soul musicians such as, Otis Reeding clearly explains his open mind. Peter Gabriel has collaborated with many different musicians such as, Stewart Copeland, Robert Fripp, Trent Reznor and producer Bob Ezrin. Peter has created or been apart of many different organizations to show his love of awareness and passion towards certain ideas. Some organizations include WOMAD (World of Music, Arts and Dance), Real World Studios, WITNESS, On Demand Distribution, and Mudda. He has won many awards and has been apart of music for more than 30 years now either playing it or contributing to further improve certain musical endeavors. His music has been featured in many films and tv shows and i highly doubt you haven't heard his music in some form or another. His lyrics are realistic and express a lot of meaning. Peter Gabriel to me is a big inspiration to move forward with what I love to do and I'm certain I'm not the only one inspired by this brilliant mind.
