| Magic Pill cures the primal urge... |
| Magic Pill serves up incredibly funky grooves with a hard rock edge. Add some jazz influences, strong pop hooks, killer chops, tons of energy, and look out! Magic Pill has arrived. This monster power trio has a unique sound, totally new, but familiar at the same time. Look to hear them on upcoming episodes of MTV's series "The Road Home" and "Making the Video". |
| Accomplished guitarist, singer, songwriter, Peter J. Beckett, founded the New Jersey based three piece funk/rock band, Magic Pill. Their 1999 self titled release includes 11 tunes, based in pop, layered with neck grooving beats and 70's Shaft funk stylings - add on top Beckett's youthful friendly vocals and jazz fusion guitar soloing and you've got this record nailed. The band consists of Beckett, drummer Frank DiOrio (solid as a rock with intuitive and perfect playing), and bassist Peter Duncan. |
| The band plays regularly around the Metropolitan NYC region. |
