Pete Yorn
Peter Joseph "Pete" Yorn (born July 27, 1974) is an American singer-songwriter, guitarist and drummer who first gained international recognition after his debut record, Musicforthemorningafter, was released to critical and commercial acclaim in 2001. He is known for playing the bulk of the instruments on his records.
Early history
Yorn was born in Montville, New Jersey, the son of Joan, a former school teacher and real estate agent, and Lawrence K. Yorn, a retired dentist. His brother Rick is a major talent manager in Hollywood, while his brother Kevin Yorn is an entertainment lawyer. Yorn was raised Jewish. He grew up in Montville, New Jersey, where he attended Montville Township High School.
Breakthrough
Yorn was encouraged enough to maintain a focus on music while attending Syracuse University (class of 1996) where he was a major in the department of Communication and Rhetorical Studies and a member of the Delta Upsilon Fraternity. After graduating, Yorn moved to Los Angeles, where he began to attract a following with his performances at Cafe Largo. He was signed to Columbia records in 1999. Shortly after, film producer Bradley Thomas (Kingpin & There's Something About Mary) liked Yorn's act enough to request Yorn send him some rough demos for possible inclusion in the Farrelly Brothers' film Me, Myself and Irene. Soon after, Yorn landed a job scoring all of the music to the film and also contributed the songs "Strange Condition" and "Just Another" to the film and its soundtrack.

Long Time Nothing New
by: Pete YornSame old town
Loose sense surround me
Always drags you down
Don't let it get you down
Same four walls
Don't mean anything
To anyone
'Cos all you care about
Was to see yourself break out
I've seen you this way before
Life's strained but true
Well, what are we waiting for?
Long time, nothing new
Long time, nothing new
I'm here...
I'm here...
