WELCOME TO MY CREATIVE UNIVERSE
Meet NORTH
NORTH is more than just a band—it’s a musical journey that captures the highs, lows, and everything in between. Formed with a shared passion for storytelling through sound, we’ve spent years crafting songs that resonate with the soul. Our music is an eclectic mix of rock, alternative, and introspective lyrics, reflecting the personal struggles, victories, and moments of clarity we’ve all faced.
Our albums, Vicissitudes and Many Reasons, each tell a unique story. From the raw energy of tracks like “Kick the Stone” and “Mercury Rising” to the reflective depths of “No Reflection” and “Hope Fallen,” every song is a chapter in our collective experience.
Music has always been a way for us to connect—not only with each other but with everyone who listens. NORTH's sound is heartfelt, unfiltered, and always evolving. Dive in and explore the beats, melodies, and words that define who we are. You can listen to samples of our music here, and we hope our songs speak to you just as they’ve spoken to us.
APARTMENT YEARS
Take a trip down memory lane with my Apartment Years collection, a treasure trove of creative moments that capture the heart of my artistic journey. This collection includes recordings from my early stand-up comedy shows, where I took the stage to share humor drawn from real-life experiences, often including reflections on living with Multiple Sclerosis. While not always side-splittingly funny, these performances offer a unique blend of wit and authenticity, showcasing my ability to find humor in life’s challenges.
The collection also features episodes of my quirky public access series, The Genius of Stupidity, where I embraced absurdity and created a show that thrived on unpredictable, offbeat humor. Each episode offers a window into my playful exploration of the bizarre and unexpected, inviting viewers to laugh, reflect, and question the world around them.
Wave of Emotion
Wave of Emotion is a poignant journey into life’s complex layers, written and performed by Peter J. Licari. This standout single by Peter captures the raw feeling of navigating through emotional highs and lows, echoing the resilience and introspection that mark Peter’s unique artistic style. With haunting melodies and lyrics that speak to the soul, Wave of Emotion invites listeners to reflect, connect, and ride the currents of life alongside him.
