A seasoned street performer, PK Dwyer started busking in Los Angeles in 1970 and while playing the theatre lines was noticed by film maker Jac Zacha.

Always evolving and writing new material, PK went on to found the Jitters, Throbbing Gems, the infamous "Gutter People of Paris" street cabaret, the Hollywood Dick Doll Revue,and glitter folk hero George Michael Jackson.

In 2001 the CD "Up To My Balls In The Blues" was released and received word wide ariplay on folk, blues, and college radio. PK Dwyer''s most recent CD, "Blues Guy Now," was released in June 2003 to an enthusiastic audience, world wide airplay, and critical acclaim. A gypsy at heart, PK continues to busk his way around the world, traveling the back roads of the U.S. and the streets of Europe with his wife and two dogs.
