This success was followed the same year with the band's 2011 Album, Path to Freedom, which was produced by 7 time Grammy Award winning producer, Don Was.
The band's fan base has been known to compare Perry Acker to a "modern day Beatles group", citing the band's pop hooks and colorful range of musical dynamics. Perry Acker has performed alongside National Recording Artists including Neil Citron, Paul Rodgers (Bad Company, Free, Paul Rodgers Band), and Vicci Martinez (a now National Artist also hailing from the Pacific Northwest). The band references The Eagles, Supertramp, Fleetwood Mac and the Beatles as influences in both the bands music as well as their high-energy performance style. Perry Acker Lead Vocalist Pete Johnson describes the band's sound as "Dave Matthews meets John Mayer with a little bit of Fleetwood Mac and Super Tramp. Put them all in a bucket and mix it around".
Lefthand Smoke
Northwest Favorites Lefthand Smoke, featuring front men (and brothers) Ben and Will Mish features a style best described as " a blend of neo-soul and rock that is steeped in tradition, yet entirely original and fresh". The Rolling Stones, Van Morrison, Bob Dylan and James Brown have also been referenced as musical influences.
Notable highlights of the bands career include headlining Bumbershoot (Seattle's highly acclaimed annual music festival), opening for national touring Artists Maroon 5 and John Mayer and sharing the stage with members of Pearl Jam during a benefit show in Seattle, WA (Eddie Vedder, Stone Gossard and Mike McCready). Original recording by Lefthand Smoke have appeared on Network Television, including the show ER and the Discovery Channel.
