Liam Pendergrass

Liam Pendergrass is a singer-songwriter and multi-instrumentalist from central North Carolina. His original music can be described as guitar-driven soul/funk with heavy blues, jazz, and americana influence, wrapped into a high-energy and quirky stage performance. After performing as a bassist for the Charlotte hard rock group "SkyFold" (2016-2024) in the early 2010s, Liam solidified his place in the southeast music scene as the frontman/lead guitarist of the funk rock group "Liam & The Nerdy Blues" (2018-2024) and as the most recent lead guitarist for the touring NC indie rock band "Swim in the Wild" (2021-present.). He currently performs across the east coast as a solo artist and lead vocalist and bassist for his band "Liam Pendergrass Trio" and is releasing what he calls "paranormal funk" music with heavy-hitter NC musicians under the recording project alias "Strange Reports." In addition to these acts, Liam has played guitar, bass, and mandolin on stage with artists such as Sue Foley, Dennis Reed Jr., falllift, Ashley Heath, and many more, and has recorded on hundreds of tracks over the past decade. He has joined his own bands and Swim in the Wild on main stages at festivals such as Cheerwine Festival, FloydFest, Queen City Jam Session, Fall for Greenville, and CLT Shout.
