Peter Case & Paul Collins w/ Summer Twins @ Bridge Street Live

Peter Case and Paul Collins play the songs of The Nerves, Plimsouls, Breakaways and The Beat.

In 1975 Peter and Paul first worked together in the now legendary band The Nerves, the band that spawned number one hits like “Hanging on the Telephone” for Blondie and “Come Back Stay” for Paul Young. The Nerves were trails blazers from their beginnings in San Francisco when they recorded their now collector’s item EP.

With the demise of The Nerves Peter and Paul carried on briefly with The Breakaways which spring boarded them into their own separate but equally influential bands…The Plimsouls (Peter Case) and The Beat (Paul Collins) which effectively defined the power pop scene in Los Angeles and America circa 1980.

For the very first time since The Nerves... Peter and Paul will perform all the hits from The Nerves, The Plimsouls and The Beat!

To coincide with this tour, Alive Recordings will release a Plimsouls "Live From The Golden Bear" in February 2012. Alive has previously released Plimsouls, Nerves, Breakaways and Paul Collins albums and will be very involved in helping to promote these shows.
