Interview with Pete Trewavas

[Marillionred]

A few weeks ago I was given the privilege to interview by phone one of my all-time bass heroes, Pete Trewavas from Marillion, for the Lyric Lounge Review web site. If you have a moment to spare, please feel free to have a look 🙂

This is my first ever interview for a web site, and I make no claims to be a great journalist or writer, but Pete was generous with his time and depth of answers, and came up with a few great anecdotes.

Thanks for looking 🙂

enjoyed that. He's quite an interesting character and a fantastic bassist.

I'm not a huge fan of them but i do enjoy hearing them.

Think maybe I need to start acquainting myself with their post Fish output...

I'm kinda in that territory as well. I did buy quite a few Transatlantic albums tho.

Transatlantic was musically mixed: from quality prog noodling to wishy washy preachy nonsense.

I like it but i'm not religious. Just good musicianship. Think it may have developed into preachy stuff but the early material was technically very good IMO

I love Marillion with both singers, they have evolved but also retained their core sound IMO. If, as stated above, you wish to acquaint yourself with Hogarth era Marillion you could do worse than the albums This Strange Engine, Afraid of Sunlight, and Marbles. Also, Brave is a masterpiece IMO but is a concept album and takes a few listens. Pete is a great bass player too 👍
