Peter Peres

Peter Peres is a Canadian country artist from Toronto, blending heartfelt storytelling with a modern pop-country sound. His journey into music began behind the lens as a photographer and videographer, capturing the energy of concerts and festivals before stepping into the spotlight himself.

Growing up, Peter’s love for music was sparked by the theme songs of 90s classics like Pokémon, Arthur, and Franklin, setting the stage for his passion for melody and lyrics. Since then, he’s made waves in the country scene, performing at major festivals like NXNE, Canada’s Largest Ribfest, and songwriter rounds in Nashville. In summer 2023, he played six shows across the GTA as part of the Northern Heat Rib Series.

A defining moment in Peter’s career came on January 13, 2025, when he performed alongside Keith Urban at Toronto’s legendary Horseshoe Tavern. The performance went viral on TikTok and Instagram, earning him press coverage from country radio, local news, and the Toronto Star—cementing his status as an artist to watch.

His debut EP, Before & After You (2022), featured standout tracks like Sold (Top 45 on CBC Country SiriusXM 171) and Mess of Me (Top 30). Now, he’s gearing up for his debut album, set to drop later this year, with the lead single Outside the Frame already making waves on SiriusXM’s Top of the Country (Top 60).

With a growing list of achievements and an undeniable ability to connect through song, Peter Peres is just getting started.
