Finest Musician or Band

theponderprojectband

Nothing to ponder here — The Ponder Project delights fans with its mix of classic to hard rock. They cover a wide selection of crowd favorites from the ‘70s all the way up to current day. The six‑member band hails from Rockingham, and plays at venues across North and South Carolina. Bass guitarist Jason Singleton says, “We want our audience to experience the combined talents of all our members and to walk away asking when they can see us again.”

Ponder always puts on a great show. The musicians are super nice and always willing to lift your spirits with music.

—Taylor Ruest, Ellerbe, a member of Pee Dee Electric
