MusicBoxPete was started by myself in November, 2009 as a forum for album reviews of high profile bands and smaller independent artists. Eventually, it grew as a platform for emerging artists to be heard with my weekly Artist Spotlight feature, which then grew into album reviews and features on upcoming singles by up and coming bands. Once or twice a week, I present to you a feature on an emerging artist and why you should know about them. I present to you the highlights of each artist and tell you who the band is, why they're awesome, and where you can hear their music.

In addition, every Monday at 5pm I have my MusicBoxPete podcast dedicated to talking about the history of Billboard's Modern Rock Tracks which is now known as Alternative Airplay, and tell you the origins of the chart along with some chart statistics, artists that dominated the early years of the chart, and what artists are appearing on the chart today. Then, I help you wrap up the week with MusicBoxPete Live every Friday evening on the MBP Facebook page where I talk about the past week of music, and look ahead to what's coming down the road.
