Early bandsWasilewski, a Connecticut native, had his beginnings in the band JC Superska before joining New Haven third wave ska band, Spring Heeled Jack. He played tenor saxophone and provided additional vocals up until their breakup in 2000. Less Than JakeAfter the breakup of Spring Heeled Jack, Wasilewski replaced Less Than Jake saxophonist Derron Nuhfer soon after the band's release of Borders and Boundaries in 2000. To avoid potential confusion with having two people named Pete within the band, trombonist Pete Anna being the second, Wasilewski was nicknamed "JR" or Pete Junior. The nickname stuck despite the departure of Pete Anna after the 2001 Warped Tour. The first Less Than Jake album Wasilewski appeared on was 2003's Anthem. He also provides backing vocals, both live and when recording. DiscographyJC Superska
