Dash Rip Rock w/Million Sellers

Pop/Rock

Nashville Scene Critic's Pick …

Rockabilly is surely the most misunderstood of the variants of rock ’n’ roll. That was the case when it first coalesced in the mid-’50s as a mutant crossbreed of hillbilly and R&B, and it’s still true today with well-intentioned hepcats who get lost in a swamp bog of fashion, tattoos and pomade. Fortunately, there are still plenty of bands that can split the dog on the line between inspiration and re-creation. Louisiana’s Dash Rip Rock have been successfully slicing their way between the two for almost 30 years now, keeping the Dixie-fried good times crunchy and spicy. With local favorites The Million Sellers supplying their brand of common-sense hillbilly-bop injected with classic pop book-learnin’, it’s sure to be an avalanche of hot rocks.
