Deep South

Sweet Home Alabama. Keep on Smilin. Freebird. these songs are the language of Southern Rock. When you hear them, you cant help but nod your head and hum along. And thats how it should be. Southern Rock is about being who you are without apology. Its about saying whats on your mind and asking questions later. Perhaps these are the reasons why the genre has continued to grow in popularity over the last three decades. Its music for honest people who know how to work hard but also know how to have a good time. Southern Rock is pure rock-n-roll with just enough dirt thrown in to make it interesting.



Today were in the early stages of a Southern Rock revival, a Rebelution if you will. And leading the way is an impressive line up of artists who were there in the beginning making the music that is now synonymous with Southern Rock. Whats even more impressive is that these artists are all part of one group! Deep South is a new band (sort of) comprised of former members from some of the greatest Southern Rock bands to ever take the stage. Combined they have performed all over the world and played tens of thousands of concerts in front of sold out audiences. Jimmy Hall (Wet Willie), Artimus Pyle (Lynyrd Skynyrd), Hal McCormack , Robert Nix (Atlanta Rhythm Section), Dean Daugherty (Atlanta Rhythm Section), and Chris Hicks (Marshall Tucker Band) have come together to revive the songs that changed a generation and redefined what it meant to rock. Like an old friend, Deep South is reconnecting with fans who first loved their songs and attracting new listeners who are in search of music that showcases true musicianship and can keep you captivated for longer than three and a half minutes. Fans who have been waiting to hear the Southern Rock classics performed by the ones who wrote them dont have to look any further than this fall. Deep South will be touring in support of their self-titled live CD & DVD due out in September.



They havent come to prove anything -- they dont need to. Theyve simply come to write a new chapter in the book they started 30 years ago; and lucky for us, we get to go along for the ride.
