Peter Concilio

Peter Concilio is a freelance bassist who has been inspired to study his craft ever since his youth in New Haven, Connecticut, where the black underground gathered to play the music called "bop." He appears regularly at Skunk Hollow Tavern in Hartland, and feels privileged to perform with local jazz artists in and around the Upper Valley.
