About Peter
Peter Hughes, also known by his stage name Peter Peter Hughes, is an American multi-instrumentalist and musician associated with Leeds Arts University. He is best known for his work as the bassist for the band the Mountain Goats. Hughes contributed backup vocals on the song 'Cubs in Five' from the 1995 EP Nine Black Poppies and performed on select tracks for the band's 1997 album Full Force Galesburg. He played bass during two European tours in 1996 before becoming the band's full-time bassist with the release of Tallahassee in 2002. Hughes performed on every subsequent studio album and touring lineup until his retirement from the band in 2024 after 28 years of service. Aside from his work with the Mountain Goats, Hughes was involved in the local music scene in Chino, California, playing in a band called Exit House and leading DiskothiQ from 1992 to 1999. He also recorded with bands like Nothing Painted Blue, Refrigerator, and Wckr Spgt, and he operated a tape label called Sonic Enemy, known for releasing Beck's album Golden Feelings on cassette. Hughes released a solo concept album titled Fangio in 2010 and announced a new project, Half-Staff Blues, recorded with members of the Australian band Pop Filter. His interests extend beyond music, as he has worked in copyediting, printing, and graphic design, authored The Baseball Diaries, and contributed automotive journalism to various publications. In 2024, he launched a podcast called Tired: The Car Podcast For People Who Understand That Cars Are Bad, continuing his engagement with automotive topics.

FAQs
Every question we get asked before
someone starts their trial.
If you have a concern about deliverability, AI quality, data privacy, or whether this will actually work for your specific situation, it's probably answered below.
What is the difference between Founder Solo and Founder Pro?
Founder Solo gives you 50 AI pitches per month using the credit model (Standard pitches cost 1 credit, Enriched pitches cost 2). Founder Pro raises that to 200 credits per month and adds full Booking Probability access, unlimited Magic Match, Apollo enrichment credits, and data export capabilities. Both plans use the same credit system, so you can stretch your monthly budget further by using Standard-mode drafting.
How do agency tiers work?
Agency tiers have no base fee. You pay per managed client and per talent profile. Agency Standard is $199 per client per month; Agency Pro is $399 per client per month. Both add $39 per talent profile per month. Your own team's user seats are always free.
What is a talent profile?
A talent profile represents one person (founder, executive, or spokesperson) you are booking onto podcasts. It includes their bio, topics, headshots, and outreach history. Team plans include 5 profiles; agency plans are pay-as-you-go.
Can I switch plans later?
Yes, at any time. Upgrades take effect immediately; downgrades apply at the end of the current billing period. Contact support if you need help migrating between plan families.
Do you offer a free trial?
Every paid plan includes a 15-day free trial. Your card is saved at signup but you will not be charged until day 16. Cancel any time from your dashboard.
What happens if I cancel?
You keep access until the end of your current billing period. No charges after that. Your data is retained for 30 days in case you reactivate.
Is the 20% annual discount automatic?
Yes. Select Annual on the pricing toggle and the discounted price is applied automatically at checkout. The annual price shown is the full year cost.
What if I have more than 50 profiles or 20 clients?
That is our Enterprise tier. Contact our sales team and we will build a custom plan with volume pricing, a dedicated account manager, and SLA guarantees.
