After Pete and Maura's fateful 1992 meeting (the subject of their first Appleseed CD's title song, "Half a Million Miles") and several years of touring and recording with Nanci Griffith, the duo seceded amicably from Griffith's Blue Moon Orchestra and became The Kennedys, recording CDs that encompass their favorite musical styles while incorporating naturalistic, transcendental and mythological concepts into their songs and lives.
With the release of their tenth CD as The Kennedys and recent CDs by their Strangelings and Stringbusters side projects, as well as two new solo recordings (Pete Kennedy's "Guitarslinger", and Maura's debut solo CD, "Parade of Echoes" added to their discography, Pete and Maura remain the Energizer bunnies of the folk/rock world. Their touring schedule makes Bob Dylan seem lazy - they've played about 1500 gigs in the last 12 years, everywhere from house concerts to major festivals, and have recently rejoined Nanci Griffith's tour as part of her band and as her opening act in theatres and festivals around the world.
