12 Corners Vineyards Music in the Vineyard: Red Wine and Blue! with For Pete’s Sake

For Pete’s Sake formed when Pete Nye joined the eternal chorus, and his bandmates Dan Moser and Cole Latimer renamed the band in Pete’s remembrance, contining their acoustic bluegrass and country music in his honor, and adding a new dimension by featuring Cole Latimer’s experiences with the fiddle in Ireland, as well as adding in mandolin, bodhran, tin whistle, guitar, banjo, bass, and his distinctive vocals. Dan Moser shares vocals with Cole and also plays a variety of acoustic instruments. Their ability to switch up instruments between the musicians results in a constant variety of sounds. 

Jim McClure makes three! Jim is a Michigan City area percussionist with an affinity for the music. When he sat in with For Pete’s Sake on the cajon at a local Irish pub, listeners began to dance and Jim soon became a valued member of the group. He continues to explore the bodhran which has become integral to the sound. 

For Pete’s Sake plays regularly for Irish Pubs, breweries and wineries and they love to participate in the plethora of local festivals. Bring the family out to listen at 12 Corners Vineyard—there’s plenty of room for dancing!
