Grammy Award winner Peter Frampton is one of the most celebrated guitarists in rock history. At 16, he was lead singer and guitarist for British teen band, the Herd. At 18, he co-founded one of the first super groups, seminal rock act Humble Pie. Frampton recorded five albums with Humble Pie, before leaving in 1971 to pursue a solo career.
Few were prepared for the success of 1976's live album Frampton Comes Alive!, which went on to become one of the biggest selling live albums of all-time. It topped the US album chart for ten weeks, and is thought to have sold around 16 million copies worldwide. It also contains Peter Frampton's most recognizable song, "Baby, I Love Your Way."
In 1996, Frampton appeared in an episode of The Simpsons entitled Homerpalooza in which he played "Do You Fee Like We Do." He served as a technical advisor for Cameron Crowe's autobiographical film Almost Famous.
In 2007, Frampton won a Best Pop Instrumental Album Grammy for his release, Fingerprints.
Frampton's much-anticipated follow up Thank You Mr Churchill comes out in 2010.
