biographical info
The Appleman Collective have been around in some form or other since 2006. With the exception of Anthony Appleby and Murray Peglar, the line up has been in constant flux since then. (Though we've had the current arrangement almost 6 months now!). Anthony Appleby writes the music, sings, plays accordion & a coterie of other sundry music makers. Murray Peglar (Guitar) takes perfectly good songs, shakes 'em up, & hands 'em back to the band. Dan Ryan plays bass & pumps us up! Danielle French, an established and lauded singer/ song writer in her solo career, brings experience and connections to the band and plays a mean set o' drums to boot!
