After the jump, watch Jon Peter Lewis perform “Everybody Falls” at the Sweetwater Performance Theater in Fort Wayne, IN. The tune is from his new album Break the Silence due to drop July 22.
To listen to more cuts from the album, check out his My Space. My favorite cuts? “Tonight” and “No Fire”. But, I like them all. I’m really looking forward to this one, peeps.

Thanks Mj for posting this video I enjoyed it.
I always liked this guy. He may not be the most talented person to have appeared on Idol…but he doesn’t seem like a jerk. That’s worth a lot right there! Also, he seems more like a songwriter than singer to me, and that’s not a bad thing; I wish him good luck with all of it.
Ex-”Idols” Young and Lewis take indie route
…For Lewis, known as JPL by his fans, “Silence” is technically his second full-length release. His first, “Stories From Hollywood,” was independently released in 2006 and sold a mere 1,000 units in the United States, according to Nielsen SoundScan.
“I didn’t know who to trust,” he says of post-”Idol” offers, so he bought his own equipment and quickly put together an album because he “just needed to have a record done … as a calling card.”
The lessons learned from that experience prepared him for handling its follow-up, and through networking he got connected with Grierson and producer Chris Garcia. The result is a more “focused” set of songs that finds Lewis taking a straightforward rock approach, with guitar-heavy, radio-ready choruses paired against subtler singer-songwriter numbers…
Ooh, No Fire is very nice, indeed, mj! :)
