(MPG) Pete Muller shares the music video for his new single "Stopping Time," a highlight from his album One Last Dance, out now via Two Truths Music. Featuring orchestration from the acclaimed genre-bending duo SistaStrings, "Stopping Time" is a plea against the clock that outruns us all, unfolding through a series of emotionally resonant vignettes. Its visual gives a behind-the-scenes look at the making of the poignant track, shot at Peter Gabriel's Real World studio and New York City's famed Power Station.
"'Stopping Time' unfolds like a dream-a series of vignettes exploring longing, beauty, the fleeting nature of memory, and the stories we construct to transform ourselves," says Muller. "The video offers glimpses into how the record came to life, from our magical week at Real World in England to the subsequent overdubs at Power Station in New York City. The supremely talented SistaStrings add rich, tasteful texture, complementing Rob Mathes's beautiful string arrangement."
Recorded at Peter Gabriel's Real World Studios in Bath, England, alongside his band the Kindred Souls, Muller's self-produced album One Last Dance is his most vulnerable songwriting to date, garnering praise from Americana UK, Americana Highways and more. Featuring special guests like Grammy-winner Allison Russell in addition to SistaStrings, the songs here are rich and character-driven, with performances fueled by the deep bonds between Muller and his bandmates. The end result includes highlights like the Latin-flavored title track with Russell, the empowering "Fire Child," the uplifting "Dream Small" and the bittersweet "New York In The Rain."
Muller's fourth studio release in the last five years, One Last Dance is the follow-up to his 2024 album More Time, which earned acclaim from Consequence, Rock & Roll Globe and more. After achieving success in quantitative finance, he found himself yearning to fulfill his creative urges. He continued to write and perform - eventually releasing a series of albums that would lead to dates with the likes of John Oates, Lisa Loeb, Jimmy Webb, Livingston Taylor, and Paul Thorn, along with festival slots everywhere from Telluride to Montreux.
Passionate about supporting live music venues and the artists who inhabit them, Muller founded the nonprofit Live Music Society (LMS), which provides critical grants to independent music venues around the country. Today, he stands as both a dedicated artist and a champion of the live music ecosystem, committed to helping artists around the country find their voice, as he found his.
