Making his home in Seattle, guitarist \/drummer \/composer \/educator Milo Petersen\u2019s first music lesson was from his Danish grandfather who played the harmonica and the accordion. When Milo was five years old he asked his Grandfather if he could play his harmonica. His grandfather replied, \u201cFirst you have to whistle a tune\u201d. Milo went on to study violin and sing in church choirs as a child. He later studied guitar with Mark Baker, Jim Kelleher, Dave Peterson, Herb Ellis, Tal Farlow and Joe Pass. He currently enjoys a long term student\/teacher relationship with 7-string guitar master Ron Eschete. Milo has also studied drums with Moyes Lucas Jr., Victor Lewis, Billy Hart, Mel Brown, Steve Ellington, Jeff Hamilton, Ignacio Berroa, Idris Muhammed, and Herlin Riley.
Milo has been active in the Pacific Northwest jazz community since the late 70\u2019s after studying for three years at Western Washington University under Bill Cole, Scott Reeves, and Americole Biasini. Milo spent four years in New York City (1987-1991) leading trios and quartets and then returned to Seattle. In addition to playing with the wide array of amazing musicians in Seattle he has performed with some of the world\u2019s finest including: Gary Steele, Ron Eschete, Julian Priester, Joe Sample, Ernestine Anderson, Herb Ellis, Nancy King, Cedar Walton (with the Composer\u2019s and Improviser\u2019s Orchestra), Mose Allison, Larry Coryell, Chip Jackson, Eliot Zigmund, Billy Hart and Phil Markowitz.
