From the venue:

Politics has typically lingered on the fringes of the Drive-By Truckers’ music for as long as anyone can remember. But with the formerly Athens, Georgia-based quintet’s latest album, American Band, politics reign supreme. The divisiveness of the 2016 presidential election galvanized singers, songwriters, guitarists, and founding members Patterson Hood and Mike Cooley to express their discontent with the current socio-political atmosphere in words that are as forthright, literate, and as powerful as their tough and rootsy Southern rock. The group has maintained the same lineup for three consecutive albums, a first for the DBTs, and their shows are tighter, tauter, and more focused than any time throughout their impressive 21-year run.
