Throughout the seventies, Noone performed,
composed songs and produced recordings with such artists as David Bowie, Debby
Boone and Graham Gouldman. His album with the Tremblers, “Twice Nightly”
and his solo effort “One of The Glory Boys” were both critically and
commercially successful.
Accompanied by his band, Herman’s
Hermits, Noone consistently plays to sold-out venues the world over. He has a
legion of faithful fans (known as “Noonatics”) whose loyalty is unparalleled.
Today’s teen girls scream just as passionately as their mothers did back in
1965, prompting VH1 to select Peter as their viewer’s choice for the “Sexiest
Artist of the Year”. Most recently, Noone starred in the recurring role of
“Paddington” on the CBS daytime drama, As The World Turns. His
colorful performances instantly made him a favorite of the soap opera magazines
and online message boards. There is no doubt that Peter Noone’s extraordinary
talent, disarming wit, handsome features and compelling stage presence will
continue to delight fans of all ages, for a long, long time to come.
