Help Us Bring Pete’s Music to Life
Pete Keniston was a  talented singer/songwriter, self-taught on piano and guitar, who would rarely perform for others. His music could often be heard late at night drifting over the waters of Newfound Lake as he played alone to the stars above.
​
Now that Pete is gone, we are left with his handwritten lyrics with the occasional music notes and just the memory of his soulful voice.
​
Can you help us?
​
Please feel free to share Pete’s lyrics with any musician who may be able to put these lyrics to music.
​
All we ask is that you attribute the words to Pete Keniston and perhaps make a donation in his honor to a music charity of your choice.
​
Here’s two New Hampshire charities:
​
Concord Community Music School
​
https://www.ccmusicschool.org/support/
​
Portsmouth Music and Arts Center
​
​
Let us know of any other worthy music charities.
​
Most important, share your efforts with us so we can keep Pete’s music alive:
Â
The Quay
All these paths I’ve crossed
So many times along my way
And I’ll walk alone
One more time today
​
The old stone cross
In the great star shape
South County Cork where
The river forks
Follows toward the quay
By tomorrow I’ll be on my way
It seems so far away
I’m on my way
Â
I’m calling on God
And all his heavenly angels
I go to sail across the sea
Riding along
I’m rolling with the ocean
I go to find my place to keep
My place to keep
Get in Touch
Whether you're a musician looking to collaborate or just want to share your thoughts on Pete's music, we would love to hear from you.
