Description du concert
R&B and Soul classics
Hayseed Dixie began one innocent Summer day in 2000 when John Wheeler and Mike Daly drank roughly enough whiskey to float a battleship from the Florida Coast over to Portugal and back and decided to play around in John’s studio.
Hayseed Dixie have evolved into a proper force, one that most people either love, hate, or have never heard of. There isn’t really any middle ground, nor should there be. But fourteen albums – consisting of both original material and reinterpretations of previously rendered songs – and global physical sales in excess of half a million copies, with over 1,200 live shows in 31 different countries testify: Hayseed Dixie are the undisputed creators of the musical genre, Rockgrass. There are many copycats, converts, and disciples out there. Accept no imitations.
Hayseed Dixie now present their 15th studio album, a collection of both original songs and reinterpretations of R&B and Soul classics.

Excellent show, band on top form, temporary banjo player very good, easy to spot, playing banjo & much younger than the rest of the band, Not seen them for a while, enjoyed all the new tracks, for me, plus my favourites Kirby Hill & Ace of Spades. Venue good size, full house, but good views from most positions. You get a bit 'stiffed' for price of beers, nothing new at music venue, but not silly prices. Fantastic value for money, only £22/ticket for great evening. Yes, you could watch a stadium band half a mile away on a screen & pay £120 ticket to watch Coldplay or similar if u wanted, not sure why?
Give me small venue/great band/great music played by very talented musicians with the bonus of semi acoustic instruments.
Well done Hayseed Dixie.

Biographie de Hayseed Dixie
The undisputed creators of the musical genre, "Rockgrass," Hayseed Dixie began on September 22, 2000 when Barley Scotch (aka John Wheeler) stumbled across a wrecked car on an isolated mountain road near Deer Lick Holler, East Tennessee. Examining the wreckage, he found a stack of old-school vinyl records by a group he had never before heard of called AC/DC. Taking these records back to town and playing them on the only record player he had, a 78rpm Victrola, it was forthright revealed to Barley and the boys that the Lost Highway of Hank Williams and the Highway To Hell of AC/DC were indeed the very same road.
Thus Hayseed Dixie was formed and set out to record some of these new songs in their own mountain music style, the way the Good Lord intended. The first Hayseed Dixie album, “A Hillbilly Tribute To AC/DC,” contains stark-raving hillbilly re-workings of 10 classic AC/DC songs. Released worldwide on April 17, 2001, much to the surprise of everyone involved, this debut album proceeded to sell more than 150,000 copies in its first year of release in the US alone. So the boys hit the road in the Summer of 2001 to play some live shows, chase some women, and drink some beer & whiskey. And they haven’t stopped since.
Hayseed Dixie have released a further 17 studio albums of hillbilly re-workings of rock and pop songs along with many original songs - playing acoustic bluegrass instruments with a very electric rock & roll attitude and delivery. Accept no imitations.
