About Southern Accents
Based out of Nashville, TN—a city rich in musical history—Southern Accents features some of the best musicians dedicated to honoring one of rock's greatest legends. What began in early 2017 as a heartfelt tribute quickly spiraled into sold-out shows at top venues across the country.
Their mission is simple yet profound: to authentically replicate the sound, feel, and look of a classic Tom Petty & The Heartbreakers concert.
Meet the Band
Ronnie Gregg (Lead Vocals): Expertly nails the voice and mannerisms of Tom Petty with natural ease.
Nick Swan (Lead Guitar): Hits every classic note from Mike Campbell and adds his own flair.
Paul Jones (Bass & Co-founder): Perfectly meshes the styles of Ron Blair and Howie Epstein.
Tony Mac (Drums): An animated powerhouse combining the timeless swing of Stan Lynch with the clockwork timing of Steve Ferrone.
Jeff Hollandsworth (Keyboards): Effortlessly plays the key parts of Benmont Tench while adding strings, horns, and harmonica.
Why "Southern Accents"?
Taking their name from one of Tom Petty's most personal songs was no random choice. There's something special about the South—its spirit, its music, its soul. Tom knew it, and so does Southern Accents. They have their own way of playing, but every note begins with a southern accent. That's where they come from.
