Now he returns with his own composition, the whimsical &#8216;Michiana&#8217;.<\/strong><\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Colin grew up in the music industry, the son of Survivor founder, Jim Peterik. He&#8217;s been immersed in the music scene from well before he could say his first words &#8211; but under the wing, not in the shadow, of his famous father. The multi-layered sound of this Chicago rocker blends modern pop with the deep roots of psychedelic rock and indie. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">In his album, &#8216;Everything and Nothing&#8217;, Colin Peterik draws out glorious melodies by way of introspective songwriting, and in &#8216;Michiana&#8217;, we are pulled into his imagination, that finds its inspiration in the area centred on South Bend, Indiana, that region that borders Northern Indiana and South-Western Michigan. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Using funky guitar, and laid-back melodies, along with a chorus that is packed full of soul, Colin has given the world a song with a timeless quality that is as breezy as it is chilled-out, and the lyrics tell a story of escaping to another time and place, where you can lose yourself in nature, and inward looking.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The video for &#8216;Michiana&#8217; is as breath-taking as the song itself, with Colin performing on the shore, interspersed with shots of him at the skatepark. &#8216;Michiana&#8217; is beautifully crafted and could easily lend itself to the ending of a movie &#8211; roll credits!<br><br>Check out the video for &#8216;Michiana&#8217; below, and follow Colin Peterik online on his official <a href=\"http:\/\/www.colinpeterik.com\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">website<\/a>, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.facebook.com\/colinpeterikmusic\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Facebook<\/a>, and <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/colinpeterik\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Twitter<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n<div class=\"epyt-video-wrapper\"><div  style=\"display: block; margin: 0px auto;\"  id=\"_ytid_18538\"  width=\"640\" height=\"360\"  data-origwidth=\"640\" data-origheight=\"360\"  data-relstop=\"1\" data-facadesrc=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/O6Q5lSUr1PA?enablejsapi=1&#038;origin=https:\/\/essentiallypop.com&#038;autoplay=0&#038;cc_load_policy=0&#038;iv_load_policy=1&#038;loop=0&#038;fs=1&#038;playsinline=1&#038;controls=1&#038;disablekb=0&#038;color=red&#038;cc_lang_pref=&#038;rel=0&#038;autohide=2&#038;theme=dark&#038;\" class=\"__youtube_prefs__ epyt-facade no-lazyload\" data-epautoplay=\"1\" ><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" decoding=\"async\" data-spai-excluded=\"true\" class=\"epyt-facade-poster skip-lazy\" loading=\"lazy\"  alt=\"Colin Peterik &quot;Michiana&quot; (OFFICIAL MUSIC VIDEO)\"  src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/i.ytimg.com\/vi\/O6Q5lSUr1PA\/maxresdefault.jpg?w=640&#038;ssl=1\"  \/><button class=\"epyt-facade-play\" aria-label=\"Play\"><svg data-no-lazy=\"1\" height=\"100%\" version=\"1.1\" viewBox=\"0 0 68 48\" width=\"100%\"><path class=\"ytp-large-play-button-bg\" d=\"M66.52,7.74c-0.78-2.93-2.49-5.41-5.42-6.19C55.79,.13,34,0,34,0S12.21,.13,6.9,1.55 C3.97,2.33,2.27,4.81,1.48,7.74C0.06,13.05,0,24,0,24s0.06,10.95,1.48,16.26c0.78,2.93,2.49,5.41,5.42,6.19 C12.21,47.87,34,48,34,48s21.79-0.13,27.1-1.55c2.93-0.78,4.64-3.26,5.42-6.19C67.94,34.95,68,24,68,24S67.94,13.05,66.52,7.74z\" fill=\"#f00\"><\/path><path d=\"M 45,24 27,14 27,34\" fill=\"#fff\"><\/path><\/svg><\/button><\/div><\/div>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Last month we introduced readers to Colin Peterik, and his incredible cover of Lana Del Rey&#8217;s song, &#8216;West Coast&#8217;.
