Peter Asher

Of Peter & Gordon

We first came to know him in 1964 through the Paul McCartney penned #1 global smash “World Without Love” as the harmony half of Peter & Gordon. Now, the two-time Grammy Winner for Producer of the Year, head of A & R for The Beatles’ Apple Records, and long-time manager and producer of James Taylor and Linda Ronstadt returns to the New York Metro Fest For Beatles Fans  with a two-part presentation of “Peter Asher: A Musical Memoir of the 60s and Beyond”.  Peter was last at the New York Fest with Jeremy Clyde in 2018, and with Chad & Jeremy in 2016, so this year’s visit, with part one on Saturday, and part two on Sunday, marks the first New York Metro Fest presentation of his acclaimed “Memoir” show since the Grand Hyatt in 2014.  “Memoir” has evolved considerably since then, with newly discovered pictures and video, so settle in for great songs and stories, since, as the Wall Street Journal says, “the exuberant Mr. Asher knew anyone who rocked and everyone who mattered.”

Peter will be participating in at least one signing session on Friday and two signings on both Saturday and Sunday. Exact times will be posted on our site a week before the FEST and in our program booklet.
