About Me

Thank you for supporting INSTRUMENTAL MUSIC!!!!!
Arjun's debut album "pieces" is available now.
Since 2003, Arjun has established itself as a three-piece band capable of fusing together the power of rock with improvisational jazz influences to produce a tight, danceable sound that fills clubs across the Northeast. With Eddie Arjun Peters on guitar, Lamar Myers on drums and Andy Lowe on bass the group attracts a diverse group of fans who are searching for sexy, edgy songs held together with a great beat. Arjun is the brainchild of lifelong musician Eddie Arjun Peters who’s love affair with music since dates back to his early days in Queens, New York. From R&B and jazz to rock and funk, the group incorporates them all. After many years of touring with drummer Lamar Myers, Eddie added Andy Lowe on bass and the band Arjun was born. Arjun has always been committed to preserving the mainstream-challenged art of instrumental music; something that is not quite rock but not exactly jazz either. It is the fusion of these two art forms that define Arjun and it is Arjun’s music that draws enthusiastic crowds everywhere. In 2006, Arjun signed with Pheromone Records and released their debut album "Pieces" that was met with critical acclaim.
