Peter Kater
Peter Kater is a German-born American composer, songwriter-singer and pianist who has several times been nominated for Grammy awards. He has spent the majority of his professional life living in Boulder, Colorado.
He collaborated with R. Carlos Nakai in 1992 for the album Migration (released Silver Wave Records, January 1, 1992).
