One of the last big live music highs George Pennington experienced was in February at the NAMM 2020 conference when he found himself in the middle of a jam session with bassists John Ferrara and Victor Wooten (Pennington, a guitarist, works for Michael Kelly Guitars). The concert world shut down shortly after, and Pennington, a USF School of Music grad, has been watching and listening. Expect something like a catharsis when he hits the stage for this 21 & up show near the suburbs of northwest Tampa.
