Michelle Malone & Drag The River w/ special guest Dan Adams

After their Arista Records single Big Black Bag cracked the Billboard charts, the band hit the road in support of their album RELENTLESS and toured coast to coast with such acts as ZZ Top, Lynyrd Skynyrd, Johnny Van Zant Band, Little Feat, Johnny Winter, Colin James and Drivin' N' Cryin'. Experiencing much frustration with the record label over artistic differences, they disbanded in 1992 and went their separate ways. Band members went on to play in other projects including the GA Satellites, Matchbox 20, Tinsley Ellis, Hank Williams Jr, and Kristian Bush Band (Sugar Land). Michelle Malone has since released 14 albums to critical acclaim and enjoys a successful solo career having had songs in film and television and recorded by others which led to her receiving gold and platinum records. You have also heard her voice on other artists records including Drivin' N Cryin' (Straight To Hell, Honeysuckle Blue), Shawn Mullins, and a Grateful Dead Tribute with Dan Baird of the Georgia Satellites and Tom Petty's Heartbreaker's. After such a lengthy hiatis, members Michelle Malone (vocals, guitar), Joey Huffman (keys), Phil Skipper (bass), Billy Pitts (drums) and the addition of Doug Keys (guitar) are fired up to perform their brand of Southern Rock together again.

Doors open at 6 PM, Dan Adams at 7:30, Michelle Malone & Drag the River at 9pm.
