A song for my wife- glimpses of our story, from Hull (the town where we met) to the back of the moon (and back). 
With the recording, I tried to answer the most important and useful question in music "What would Paul McCartney do?"

In Engeland was She Loves You tot 1977 de bestverkochte single aller tijden. Het is de soundtrack van Beatlemania en nog steeds een energiebom van jewelste. Wat is het verhaal achter deze vierde single van The Fab Four, hoe werd het opgenomen en waarom zijn de originele banden van het nummer spoorloos verdwenen?

UPON SIGHTING GLASS ISLAND

Here I Float
Glass Bottom Boat
Careful Not To Tip It
Can’t Swim
Eyes Of Wool
Got Pockets Full 
Fish Don’t Pull 
Or Tug My Line
Sighting Glass Island 
On The Port Bow
Shading My Eyes 
With All My Know-How

Island Grows
I Suppose
Nestle Closer 
To Her Shore
Want To Fly
Glass Bottom Sky
Friendly Face 
On Glass I.
Sighting Glass Island 
From Up Close Now
Feeling Sand Settle 
Into My Brow

Ride The Waves
See Her Wave
And I Know
 It Wont Be Long Now
Sighting Glass Island 
From Upon It
The Best Time To See It's
When You're On It

I am an artist, writer and musician from Hastings, UK.  I make slightly wonky acoustic folk-pop, often with unusual guitar tunings, along with instrumentals that mix acoustic and electronic textures. 

Musically my current obsession is Judee Sill.
But it always comes back to the music of my childhood- The Cocteau Twins, The Waterboys, ABBA, The Beatles, Joni Mitchell, Kate Bush.

PETE GIOCONDA is a unique, edgy singer, a protest poet with penchant for historical reference. This mix of punk attitude and psychedelic-folk feel teases the audience to see through new eyes ... like a Johnny Rotten (who hasn’t slept in four days) meets Times They Are a-Changin’-era Dylan and strolls into Cat Power’s bedroom for consolation.

Out now on Bandcamp -
* THE TIME OF GREAT WASTE (single)
* WE ARE REAL EP (5 tracks)
* SAVE YOUR DREAMS EP (6 tracks)

Later in 2025 -
* UP YOU (album of 14 tracks)

Pete Gioconda's songs are fused from new wave, pop and folk/rock influences, mingling poetic lyrics with a punk attitude and playful unpretentiousness. Youthful songs of mischief, desire, loss and sadness, plus transcendent perceptions.

Pete has taken the empty culture of materialism and is attempting to untangle it. His song “Hey You, Out with Shopping Bags” acquired new meaning in the wake of 2011 looting. Shadow shopping. The unseen forces which control our perception, which leave us “dreaming of money gods”, form the subject of “Wake Up or Be Captured”. “In one sense, 1970s punk had it easy,” Pete comments. “All it had to do was attack nice fluffy hippies. It’s much harder now, because mainstream youth culture is filled with aggressive patsies of consumerism. Being aggressive back doesn’t work. I’ve tried. It just makes minds smaller.”

“Some people make shopping mall music. Big, calm, blandly elegant. Somewhere to pass the time and feel comfortable. Pete does not make that kind of music. He makes the music of cobblestone streets, winding alleys, shady lanes. Dimly lit bars. The music of cold, still dawns. Of desolate, wild country.” - Nomenclature Standard

Pete’s poetic style is influenced by the freedom he found hitching and wandering in his 20s, and by his love of classic literature. His aim is to merge story, theatre and poetry with his music and songs. In 2008, Pete performed many Bristol-written songs live on BBC3 TV’s “Upstaged”, as guest of performance artist/musician Badgertrap.
