Pennyshaker is:
Ticia Carter - VocalsDarren Moxin - Guitar
David Monger - Bass
Dabbs Aikens - Drums
Jon Gleich - Keys/Sax
Formed in 2001, Pennyshaker began in Richmond, VA. Original music was the focus, created by way of influences like Jill Scott and Jimi Hendrix. The sound was slightly retro, but in a way limited to emulation - not simulation. With powerful vocals, guitar driven rhythm, and infectious melodies, Pennyshaker delivers edgy neo-soul fused with rock and blues.
Pennyshaker's songs are created in real time by real players. The music is touched by digital but based in analog. The songs are written by the collective with each player contributing their own feeling and interpretation of the idea at hand. Although the band consists of experienced players, each talented at their own instrument, the purpose of the songs and performance is not to simply impress or entertain, but to give the listener something more than what they had when they walked through the door.
