He continued to work with Class Act Productions during his high school years, appearing in such plays as “Romeo and Juliet”, “The Little Mermaid”, and others.
As he grew older, he switched his interest to music, and together with his friend Landon Laney started the band Westend, soon changing the name to Rosedown, and then to Peter and the Haps.
The band competed in Ohio for the best high school band, but before making a name, Peter dissolved the band, and moved to Rhode Island to pursue music on his own.
Career Beginnings
In Rhode Island, he started living with his uncle, who was doing some plumbing work for a talent agent. Young Peter and the talent agent quickly got together, and the next thing he knew, he was the lead in “Footloose” at the Kennedy Center.
After a few promotion videos on his Instagram account, and a show-off of his skills as a musician, his following grew significantly, and in just three months attracted over 20,000 new followers.
Encouraged by this unexpected boost, he launched his YouTube channel, and his first video was one of the first songs he wrote, for which he has received only positive praise.
He continued to upload new videos, including the cover of the song “Swing Low, Sweet Chariot”, and “Ode to Monday”, among others.

The following year, Peter released the song “I Love You Too”, and the highly popular single “Romeo & Juliet” – the latter launched him to international stardom, encouraging him to record and release new songs.
Peter was very active throughout 2021 – he performed at various venues and expanded his setlist, both with covers and his own songs, such as “Levitating”, performed by Dua Lipa, and “Shit Show”, which became one of his major hits. His next release was the single “Eloise”, which came out on 27 January 2021, followed by the single “(Here’s to the) Prom Queen”.
His entire 2021 tour was recorded on a YouTube video, and his fans made only positive comments about his overall performance.
