Influences: Alonzo's influences include many different styles and guitarists, the largest being HIS FATHER, internationally known and respected thumbpicker, EDDIE PENNINGTON (www.eddiepennington.com). He has admired, practiced and reverently emulated the talents and styles of other legends, such as STEVIE RAY VAUGHAN, MERLE TRAVIS, CHET ATKINS, JERRY REED, MUDDY WATERS, BB KING, TOMMY EMMANUEL, BUDDY GUY, ERIC CLAPTON, DJANGO REINHARDT, AND MANY MANY MORE....
Sounds Like: In my opinion, and I'm proud to say, that APB sounds like no one else! Upon hearing and seeing us LIVE, you'll easily recognize a WIDE variety of mine, Angela, Dean and Bobby's collective influences. During our show, you'll be "visited" by STEVIE RAY VAUGHN or JIMI HENDRIX, turn around and we'll throw some JERRY REED or CHET ATKINS at ya! Later on in the night when it is time to really get down, we love doing some of the classic great dance tunes like Supersition and Standing on Shaky Ground. We LOVE to please the crowd and love to take requests from our friends in the audience! We rarely use a "set list" because we play the evening by ear, riding the ebb and flow of the energy created between us and the crowd. By enjoying a close musical relationship based on friendship and professionalism, Bobby, Angela, Dean and I move effortlessly and seamlessly from one song to the other, never missing a beat and always looking to take the show to the next level! Thanks for taking the time to read this. I sincerely hope you'll take the opportunity to attend one of our shows. We love to meet new friends and share our unique brand of music. Rock On, Alonzo Pennington
