As life grows more difficult, the deeper the economy dives, and the hurt cuts harder, the more music is needed. Music is our collective experiences, celebrations and sorrows. The Drive-By Truckers (DBT) http://www.drivebytruckers.com helps deliver these stories and give to the listener new memory paths of sound and soul.

An old school City of Louisville bus parked just outside Headliners, complete with cushy interior and red lights. Talk about a bus ready for a party. The party inside Headliners began as seemingly unfamiliar group of guys gathered with the idea of playing a few classic truck drivin’ songs. What came to be was more than expected. From all walks of life, genres of musical interest, and cultures; each musician brought their “A” game.
