Based out of Nashville, TN, Southern Accents: The Ultimate Tom Petty Experience features some of the best musicians from a state rich in musical history. What began as a fun way to honor one of their musical heroes in early 2017 quickly spiraled into sold-out shows in top venues across the country. The ultimate goal of the band? To authentically replicate the sound, feel and look of a classic Tom Petty & The Heartbreakers concert.From the top, lead singer Ronnie Gregg expertly nails the voice and mannerisms of Tom with a natural ease. Lead guitarist Nick Swan hits every classic note from Mike Campbell, and throws in a few more of his own for good measure. Bassist and co-founder Paul Jones perfectly meshes the styles of Ron Blair and Howie Epstein, while animated powerhouse Tony Mac combines the timeless swing of Stan Lynch with the clockwork timing of Steve Ferrone. Family band alum Jeff Hollandsworth rounds out the group by effortlessly playing the key parts of Benmont Tench, while also adding in flourishes of strings, horns and harmonica.
Taking their name from one of Petty’s most personal songs was no random choice. There’s just something about the South. Tom knew it, and these guys know it. They got their own way of playing, but every note’s begun with a southern accent. That’s where they come from.
