Peter Gelling (17 February 1960 – 28 September 2018)[1] was an Australian musician and an author.[2] In 1994, he designed a mentoring program, Taking the Stage, to encourage young Canberra women to form bands and take up instruments not usually played by women.
A former member of Canberra band Blind Freddy (founded in 1988 along with Mick Malouf, Paul Kindermann and Tim Spellman) he began publishing instructional manuals in 1997. He has over 130 titles to his credit for a range of instruments and styles.[4]
In 2003, Gelling won the Musicoz award in the Blues and Roots category for his song "If it wasn't for the Blues" and his playing was described by Rolling Stone Magazine as "shimmering".[5]
