Annette Peacock

Annette Peacock (born 1941)[1][2] is an American composer, musician, songwriter, producer, and arranger.

[4] Née Coleman, she moved to New York to marry jazz bassist Gary Peacock in 1960.

[4] During the early 1960s, she was an associate and guest of Timothy Leary[3] and Ram Dass at Millbrook, and was among the first to study Zen Macrobiotics with Michio Kushi, a discipline she continues to uphold.

[8] During the 1970s and '80s, she worked with Karlheinz Stockhausen, Allan Holdsworth, Evan Parker, Brian Eno, Bill Bruford, Mike Garson, Mick Ronson before moving back to the U.S.[4] The album An Acrobat's Heart (ECM, 2000) took two years to compose and arrange, and broke her twelve-year hiatus from recording.
