Maybe Pete
"Pancake and Martinis"

Released in 2009

Maybe Pete was a rock band from North Jersey led by the husband/wife duo of Frankie and Kelly McGrath. They were raised on Jersey bands like Springsteen and alt-rock legends like the Replacements. Their music was a cross between both... and I absolutely loved it. They were one of my favorite bands in the 2000s.

This would be the band's final release. Frankie and Kelly later moved to Nashville where Kelly started working as a songwriter for country/americana artists.
