III

"III" has been playing professionally since February of 2005. For a little over a year now they have built a following of their unique, distinctive sound that continues to grow with each performance.The two piece acoustic sound produced by the group is cool and laid back and at the same time strong enough to make you feel it and dance!"III" is made up of "Two" lead vocalists that switch off singing background and lead on their set list of songs. Both singers are unique in style and sound which keeps the 3 hour sets they play fresh and leaves the crowds gathered wanting more!Pat Donnelly plays guitar and has a vocal style similar to Dave Matthews, understated but strong. Perfect for the covers of "Watchtower", "Crash", "Ballad of John and Yoko", and many others. Pat is also the chief songwriter of originals for the group. The guys have played some of Pat's originals out to great response. Pat is without a doubt one of the best songwriters in the Charlotte area today.Dempsey Gibson plays percussion and has a vocal style that reminds me of Prince mixed with Sting. Very strong, soulful and sexy! Perfectly showcased on the covers of "Rasberry Beret", " Ain't No Sunshine When She's Gone" and crowd favorite " You May Be Right "The band has always wanted to be a group whose music you can "feel" more so than how loud they can turn up the speakers! So if you want a night out listening to a great band and still be able to talk to your friends, without the day after ear ringing thing, this is the group for you!www.3musicmaker.com
