Let's Talk Records

The stomping, soulful Southern rock of Drive-By Truckers has often been joined to lyrics with a story to tell, sometimes looking back at history and sometimes mirroring the ills of modern society, as on dark-hued recent albums American Band and The Unraveling. Their latest studio album, Welcome 2 Club XIII, is a bit less intense than those efforts, but no matter what songs they bring along on tour, a blazing live show is guaranteed. With Margo Cilker. Also: Bassist Matt Patton will be stopping by MadCity Music at 5 p.m. to talk records.

media release: MadCity Music is extending our hours on Sunday, March 12, because Matt Patton of Drive-By Truckers & Dial Back Recording Studio will be stopping by the store at 5 pm!
