About this concert
THEY'RE BAAAACK and ready to ROCK just one more time at The City Winery - they'll be taking some tables out, so everyone can stand up front and dance and have a real good time! We may be back in ATL in 2018....AND We have just added JAMES HALL formerly of Mary My Hope to the bill!!! DONT MISS IT!!Once upon a time Michelle Malone, Phil Skipper, Billy Pitts, Jonny Daly and Joey Huffman were in a band called Michelle Malone and Drag The River. They were signed to Arista records, and their single, Big Black Bag, started climbing the Billboard hot 100 charts. The band went from the van to the bus, and toured for several years from ATL to LA, NYC to Miami with some other famous rock bands like ZZ Top, Johnny Winter, and the Skynard folks, until they decided to disband in 1992. Since then, each has continued to tour and record with other projects including Keith Richards, Georgia Satellites, Hank Williams Jr, Sugar Land's Kristian Bush, Tinsley Ellis, Kevn Kinney of Drivin' N Cryin' and others. Now, with the addition of Doug Kees on guitar, the band is back to make more music together! Come spend a few hours in the big black bag - it only goes back to the good times!

Michelle Malone and Drag The River Biography

After their Arista Records single Big Black Bag cracked the Billboard charts, the band hit the road and toured relentlessly coast to coast with such acts as ZZ Top, Lynyrd Skynyrd folks Johnny Van Zant Band, Little Feat, and Johnny Winter and their friends Drivin' N' Cryin' and Indigo Girls. 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 (Sugar Land). Michelle Malone has also 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 a gold and platinum record. In 2017, the original members Michelle Malone (vocals, guitar), Joey Huffman (keys), Phil Skipper (bass), Billy Pitts (drums) and the addition of Doug Keys (guitar) decided to have a reunion show. Much to their surprise, the show was a huge sold-out success leaving fans hungry for more. The band played better than ever before with renewed energy to a packed house of smiling faces and had so much, that they decided to play more shows!
