 What?

Pepperland is a noir love letter to the magic of music, the talismanic powers of new-fangled computers and a generational urge to change the world. It's one big, historical, multi-track concept album.  Funny and satirical, told in fast-moving rock ‘n roll riffs and rhythms by the noted Music and Cultural Authority, Martin Alan “Pepper” Porter, Pepperland is about missing information, missing people, missing guitars, paranoia, Q & A, brothers, revolution, Agents of the Federal Government, IBM, interviews in Rolling Stone (real, imagined, or otherwise), Hugh Hefner, the birth of the Internet, a talking bear, the 18 minute Watergate tape gap, a Dark Stranger, love, death and the search for it amidst the wreckage of recession-wracked, entropically rundown mid-seventies America.

Watch for the Pepperland World Tour, coming to your town in 2013...
