What is Drive-by Truckers?
1.
Without doubt the most bad-ass Southern ROCK bad ever. A live DBT ROCK SHOW is a life changing event. Each DBT ROCK SHOW is unique but a few things always stay the same. The fans can always count on face melting guitars, lyrics that ring out loud and touch home for most any American living in the real world and enough Jack Daniels to kill an elephant.

The Drive-By Truckers know how to put on a ROCK SHOW! I can't hear anything but a slight ringing noise and my throat feels like sandpaper...let's do that again!
