Shannon Pengelly

Shannon Pengelly is the lead guitarist/vocalist for and one of the founding members of Electric Avenue.

A descendant of entertainers, musicians and artists, his attendance at the Northside School Of the Arts in Atlanta immersed him in jazz performance, music theory, ear training and performance. He was the only freshman on their venerable “Tour Show”, a touring production highlighting the professional level talents of the elite performers in the arts program.

After completing programs at Berklee College Of Music (Boston) and Musician’s Institute (Atlanta-Now AIM), under the direction and encouragement of Steve Freeman and Jimmy Herring (Col. Hampton and the Aquarium Recuse Unit, The Dead, Jazz Is Dead, Widespread Panic), Shannon moved to Hollywood, CA to further his guitar studies with the likes of Scott Henderson, Paul Gilbert, Don Mock, Steve Travato, Frank Gamble, Carl Verheyen, and many others.

Returning to the Atlanta music scene, Shannon played in various original bands including Big Sky, a staple “Progressive-Art-Pop” band featuring some of the region’s most talented players, including singing phenom Sue Wilkinson and bassist Jerry Peek of The Steve Morse Band fame. 

During this time, Shannon jumped into studio work contributing guitars on such notable recordings as Boyz2Men Boyz2Men II (12x Multi Platinum certified), Another Bad Creation Coolin’ at the Playground (Platinum Certified), and Shanice 21… Ways to Grow (Gold certified).

In the 90’s Shannon moved to and lived in Manhattan for close to a decade where he managed The Zoo Studios facility, scoring and mixing for a multitude of NY based independent films and media productions.

Needing change from the NY environment and after the occurrence of 9/11, Shannon moved back to his home town of Atlanta where he continued to use his many talents both in and out of the studio producing 100+ jingles for US-based corporations, performing in original bands and diving head first into corporate-style cover bands. After many years of taking it in the ass from a certain 70’s “Boat” band, Shannon got the axe and pulled up anchor to head into the world of 80’s new wave and radio hits with the other hoodlums you see on this website.

Shannon is a non-drinking, vegetarian dad.
