Penthouse J is not just the name that the front-man of the band goes by, it is also the name of the place where this music was born. J (whose real name is Pete Gustin) moved to New York City in the year 2000 to work for Sirius Satellite Radio. Once there, he found a little place on the corner of 54th and 7th just steps away from the Ed Sullivan Theatre. This top floor apartment had exclusive access to an enormous rooftop patio that allowed a view right down 7th Avenue towards the giant television screen in Times Square. This amazing rooftop patio was the place where a great many of the original Penthouse J songs were written. The name of the apartment, in a building called “The Adlon”, was Penthouse J.
Now, Penthouse J is more than just Pete Gustin. Tim Salter joined Pete at the very end of the album called “Mind the Time” to contribute guitar work to the songs “Evil Inside”, “Rymin’ & Stealin” and “In A Funk”. In the band’s second album entitled “Music So Good It Should Be Illegal” Tim wrote and played not just all the guitar parts, but the bass parts as well.
Tim, having come from a heavy metal background, and Pete whose influences can better be traced to Beck and the Beastie Boys have come up with a new and very exciting sound.
As Penthouse J prepares to take the new music to the stage, Berklee School of Music student Pat Ryan has joined the crew. He contributed some bass work to the title track of the second album and will be on stage with J and Tim wherever they perform.
If J’s voice sounds familiar to you, there might be a reason for that. If you listen to the radio, and you live in America, chances are pretty good that you've heard the voice of Pete Gustin at some point in your life. Currently, Pete is an announcer and the Creative Services Director for the highest rated sports talk radio station in America; Sports Radio 850 WEEI where he is best known for his comedy bits (www.petesbits.com) He is also the main voice of Sirius Radio's heavy metal channel called "Hard Attack" where he is often referred to as “the voice of Hell”. In the past, he has spent time on air at WRKO, WEGQ, WPXC, WBZ and even made appearances on New York's WNEW and KTU.
Pete had been writing and performing music from as far back as 1997 but did not release his first album until 2002. Over the years, the sound developed, and now with Tim Salter and Pat Ryan on board, Penthouse J has become something that people are really talking about.
