Vicki Peterson and John Cowsill

Vicki Peterson and John Cowsill

Vicki Peterson, founding member of the groundbreaking pop-rock band The Bangles (“Eternal Flame,” “Walk Like An Egyptian”), joins forces with John Cowsill, longtime drummer and vocalist for The Beach Boys and a founding member of the beloved family band The Cowsills. Together, they present Long After The Fire, their debut Americana album featuring previously unreleased songs written by John’s late brothers, Barry and Bill Cowsill. These gems, blending Everly Brothers-style harmony with Roy Orbison-esque storytelling, are a heartfelt tribute to the lasting power of music and family.

This intimate performance offers more than just incredible music. It’s a behind-the-scenes journey into the songs, the stories, and the lives behind the legends. You'll hear new tracks from the album as well as unforgettable classics from The Bangles and The Cowsills, delivered by two artists whose legacies helped shape the American soundscape.
