The Peacock Alley Jazz Group
Short Description:
The Peacock Alley Jazz Group (Dalton, Ga) performs traditional jazz music with vocals, piano, bass and
drums. The band is available for concerts, festivals, corporate events, wedding receptions & rehearsal
dinners, and private parties.
Description:
“A tasteful ambiance” easily describes the musical expressions when performed live by the Peacock
Alley Jazz Group. The band’s name Peacock Alley refers to the name given to old US Hwy 41 between
Dalton and Atlanta during the early 1900's when tufted cotton chenille bedspreads adorned with
peacock designs would beckon travelers to stop and purchase them. This early cottage industry led to
the birth of the carpet industry and thus Dalton Georgia became the "Carpet Capital of the World".
Each of the instrumentalists in the group are employed by the "mill companies" in Dalton, Georgia and
thus a nod to our Peacock Alley heritage.

interested in music when he was young. Frank started taking piano lessons as a
child; he also stopped taking piano lessons as a child! When he was a teenager,
Frank talked his parents into buying him an electric organ and speaker, so he could
join a rock band. Later, after hearing some jazz recordings, he discovered he liked
that style more than rock, and that turned his focus onto playing jazz piano and
learning jazz culture. Oscar Peterson, Bill Evans, and Barry Harris are a few pianists
who have influenced him.
