Three time award-winning member of Prominence, Audrey Aguon, knows about the challenges and hardships professional singers face. Aguon\u2019s band has been around the music scene for about 20 years, and the amount of recognition that the band has received could be inspiring for other local musicians. Aguon attributes the success of her band to the rest members\u2019 mutual love of music and practice they put in for their great chemistry and the years they have been together despite other bands breaking up over periods of time. \u201cI think the band has been together for so long because of the mutual respect that we have for each other,\u201d Aguon said. \u201cGigging and rehearsals are never a chore.\u201d The amount of years that the band has been together has definitely made them a family. Aguon explained, \u201cWe all have very different personalities, but when the music starts playing is magical. <\/span><\/p>\n

Chemistry is good both on and off the stage. We are like a family. We\u2019ve been together long enough to understand each other\u2019s mood swings and quirks.\u201d As a seasoned musician she says that you always have to work on your craft and study not only your material, but each other\u2019s material to get that chemistry going and understanding the timing of the song. She says that being away from each other for too long can be like not seeing a family member for a while and when they all get together after a certain amount of time from being apart, they all catch up and it becomes a family reunion. With the amount of hard work that they put into rehearsal and the knowledge that they have gained throughout performing, the band has surpassed their credibility as one of the best cover bands on Guam. Prominence has taken over many events, giving great performances and has gotten the crowd on their feet almost every time. \u201cNobody has changed,\u201d Aguon said,- We have managed to remain humble. I wouldn\u2019t call the people \u2018fans\u2019, but our friends. I have seen people who have been there with us from the very beginning. It\u2019s the type of appreciation that we get from our friends that keep us grounded.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
