Pete Riley

After his tenure with McCain, Riley moved back to England and in 2010 began writing songs with folk singer Amy Wadge. Wadge and Riley released their first album together, Rivers Apart, on March 17, 2011, and toured the UK in the months following. The duo appeared on BBC Radio Lancashire in May 2011. They released a second album together, Afterglow, in 2012, and embarked on continued touring together.

In April 2001, Riley joined the band of South Carolina singer-songwriter Edwin McCain and spent several years touring with him. Riley appeared on McCain's albums Far From Over (2001), The Austin Sessions (2003), Scream and Whisper (2004), and Lost in America (2006). Lost in America includes McCain's rendition of "Losing Tonight", which originally appeared on Nobody's Monkey.

Riley moved from Liverpool to North Carolina in the United States in the mid-1990s, where he and his band, Treehouse, befriended Hootie & the Blowfish. Treehouse were the first signing to Hootie & the Blowfish's Atlantic Records subsidiary label, Breaking Records; they released the full-length album Nobody's Monkey in 1997. Treehouse were not commercially successful, and the band broke up soon afterwards. Riley then self-released a solo album, After the Parade.
