Offer us a brief history about your band that may not be found in your bio supplied to us via your website.

With 52 members passing through PPL’s revolving door over the past 55 years, we’ve launched the careers of several former members, not the least of which is country mega-star Vince Gill.


What is the most interesting experience or story that you and your band have had over the time of your playing together?

Playing at Red Rocks amphitheater in Colorado, the whole crowd stood and sang “Amie” as the full moon rose over the stage.


Have you met any of the band members from previous years of performing?

We have always included former members in our shows when we play near where they live. Everyone always has a great time.


What do you want patrons to experience at your show?

A lot of the folks at our shows grew up or were in college during the ‘70s and we love to see them transported back to that important time of their lives.


Anything new and exciting on the horizon for your group?

We just released our new record “Back On Track” in December.


Is there anything else you would like people to know about you/your performance?

We’re hittin’ on all cylinders and nobody goes home feeling they didn’t get their money’s worth!
