Player (Peter Beckett) - Addiction EP (2012) [AOR]

Best remembered for the exquisite AOR tune "Baby Come Back," a song which topped the US single charts in the late seventies, PLAYER original lineup included Peter Beckett (guitarist, lead vocalist), J.C. Crowley (guitarist, vocalist), Ronn Moss (bassist, vocalist) and John Friesen (drummer).
After extensively playing the club scene in Southern California, Player began to develop a very distinctive edgy, yet very melodic rock style, and was signed by Robert Stigwood to his legendary RSO Records.

Player went on to release four delicious AOR / Melodic Rock albums during their active touring years until 1982. Moss left in 1981 to pursue an acting career, and has starred for the past 25 years on the daytime soap opera 'The Bold and the Beautiful'. JC Crowley pursued a career in country Music, while Peter Beckett continued writing for other artists and movie soundtracks.
Beckett also did an eight year stint with Little River Band starting in 1990, while releasing an acclaimed solo cd 'Beckett' in 1991.

Beckett got back together with Ronn Moss in 1995, recorded Player's fifth album 'Lost in Reality' and toured the United States. Since then, Peter has produced, written and played on two solo CDs for Ronn Moss and composed music for many soundtracks.
Player restarted working on new songs and touring together in 2010. The new lineup features again original members Peter Beckett and Ronn Moss together with Rob Math (guitars), Johnny English (keyboards) and Craig Pilo (drums).

Frontiers Records is pleased to announce the signing of PLAYER to the label for the release of a yet untitled new album later in 2012.
As a special appetizer to the new release, and in connection with a promotional trip in Italy where Peter and Ronn will appear on several major radio and TV shows, the label is releasing digital release only of a 3-track EP entitled “My Addiction” on April 30th.

The EP includes, along with the title track, “Too Many Reasons” and a new recording of their classic “Baby Come Back”.
“My Addiction” - as well as “Too Many Reasons” - came from co-writing sessions between Beckett and Steve Plunkett (Autograph).
"I have written tons of songs with 'Plunk' over the last 20 years and will continue to do so. We sifted through our joint efforts to see what would fit Player", tells Peter.
“Player has not released a cd for over 15 years. It's great to actually be creating in the studio for the band once again, as opposed to our many other projects.
The new album will feature Player's three part harmony very prominently and include the usual blend of AOR and big melodies", says Peter Beckett.
