Event information

Dan Baird & Homemade Sin

You may remember Dan, he was the lead singer with ’80’s roots superstars The Georgia Satellites and the composer of “Keep Your Hands To Yourself”. Every night in America, it is estimated that at least eight bands will be covering that number. Not bad for a song that celebrates it’s thirtieth birthday this year.

Joining Dan is fellow ex Satellite, drummer Mauro Magellan and founder member of Americana Hall Of Fame Lifetime Achievement winners Jason And The Scorchers, guitarist Warner E. Hodges. The line up is completed by Micke Nilsson on bass.

Drivin’ ’n’ Cryin’

Rolling Stone magazine says - Crunching hard rock is the driving’ part, brittle countryish balladry the cryin’, with the two linked by a heavy dose of Led Zeppelinphilia. If Paul Westerberg had grown up worshipping Angus Young instead of Alex Chilton, the Replacements might have sounded something like this Atlanta band.

68 - 75

Mixing Southern Soul swagger with British grit and recapturing the vibrant energy and muscular gusto of that (1968 - 1975) era, with Physical Graffitti- era raucous rock. 68 -75 offer straight ahead rock, laced with soulful, emotionally raw vocals. The sound of this Atlanta, GA based quartet is based in ’70’s rock - influenced by Free, Terry Reid, Humble Pie, Faces and Stone The Crows.
