The Modern Eldorado’s played an impressive live show in front of 250 plus viewers at the WSRE building on the PJC Pensacola campus Jan. 29.
With a name like The Modern Eldorados, most people would expect a band to put on a glitzy, gold-invaded show ended with a stage-dive or dancers dropping down from the ceiling.
However, The Modern Eldorados are more Country-styled that finds joy in playing music from their soul and making non-stop, hilarious wise cracks during performance.
“I got the name for the band in a dream that I had,” lead singer, Tyron Lyles said, who is inspired by country legend Jonny Cash.
The show included many self-written tunes such as one of their oldest and favorite, Everybody’s Girl.
“I don’t normally listen to country music, but they were talented nonetheless and played a good set.” PJC student, David Taylor said.
Lyles danced and made jokes when the strap for his guitar wouldn’t work, and all of the band members played passionately and displayed their personalities through their given instruments.
Before the show, food was served and tickets to Seville Quarter were distributed one-per-person. Only the top two rows of the studio had empty seats and the audience was actively engaged until the show ended.
