Peter Brown (born July 11, 1953, Blue Island, Illinois, United States) is an American artist, songwriter and record producer, best known for his seventies disco hits "Dance With Me" and ""Do Ya Wanna Get Funky With Me". Late in 1977, TK Records announced that sales of the 12" version of "Do Ya Wanna Get Funky With Me" had reached the million dollar mark making it the first gold 12" single in history. Before too long the album went gold as well. He was also nominated by NARAS (The National Academy of Recording Arts and Sciences) in 1978 for a Grammy Award for best R&B Vocal Performance for the song "Dance With Me". "Dance With Me" also included a guest vocal performance by Betty Wright. Also in 1978, Brown's single "Crank It Up" peaked in the Billboard Disco Chart at #4. In 1980, Brown released another charting dance song (#6 on Billboard's Disco Chart) called "Can't Be Love - Do It To Me Anyway", which was only released as a 12" single and never appeared on an album. Brown scored a few more dance chart hits in the mid 1980s but by the late 1980s a severe case of tinnitus prompted Brown to quit the music business in an attempt to preserve his damaged hearing.
