Porno For Pyros Share Christmas Song ‘Pete’s Dad’: Listen
Porno For Pyros have dipped into the vault to share a festive song, Pete’s Dad, listen below.
Pete’s Dad recalls the band spending Christmas with the father of guitarist Peter DiStefano. It was originally released as a standalone single 30 years ago.
“Best friends are people of action, when Porno for Pyros created this song ‘Pete’s Dad,’ that’s when I knew these band of men were my best friends,” DiStefano said in a statement announcing the song.
It’s been an unexpectedly busy year for the reformed band. Last month they shared Agua, their first new song in 26 years, and later played a secret set at the single’s launch party at a loft in downtown LA where they played the new song, as well as classics Good God’s://Urge!, Tahitian Moon and Pets.
The band – who have just announced their farewell tour – were joined by bassist Mike Watt who played with the group from 1995 until 1998. Watt joined Porno For Pyros during their reunion show last year at Welcome to Rockville while the band’s original bassist, Martyn LeNoble joined them for their shows in 2022.
They have also announced North American dates for next February and March, billed as a farewell tour.
