Alexis P. Suter Band to perform at Pitman's Freight Room Jan. 12

LACONIA — The Alexis P. Suter Band will take the stage at Pitman's Freight Room on Friday night, Jan. 12, at 8 p.m. Admission is $20 in advance, and $25 at the door.

The Alexis P Suter Band is a powerful and unique five-piece ensemble fronted by a vocalist who transcends styles and genres. When the great bluesman B.B. King first heard Alexis P. Suter sing, he was visibly impressed and said so after her opening set for him at B.B. King's Blues Club in New York City. Shaking his head in wonder in his characteristic way, he remarked: “It’s a rare thing to share the stage with great talent like that young lady.” Alexis was nominated for Best Soul Blues Female Artist at the 33rd Annual Blues Music Awards held in Memphis, Tennessee.

Along with Suter’s extraordinary bass/baritone voice and amazing and powerful stage presence, her real secret weapon is The Alexis P. Suter Band! At every show audiences show their whistling, clapping and cheering appreciation for drummer Ray Grappone’s dynamic beats, guitarist Jimmy Bennett’s searing leads, Peter Bennett on down home solid bass and the very talented backing vocalist Vicki Bell. The firepower of this exciting band has captured the attention of some of the best players around, and they are considered by their peers as one of the best live Bands on the scene today.

Pitman's Freight Room is located at 94 New Salem Street in Laconia. For more information visit www.pitmansfreightroom.com.
