Coming back to the Soundgarden Stage for the only time this year is the renowned Drivin’ N Cryin’! They truly know how to get the crowd jumpin’!!
Atlanta-based folk rock act, Drivin N Cryin, have spent most of their career on tour. In October 1985 Drivin N Cryin played their first show at Atlanta’s famed 688 Club. The band quickly gained attention for their blistering live shows, andamassed a rabid fanbase in the fertile soil of the late-1980s Southeast music scene. Now, 35 years later, and after releasing four full length albums on Island Records and one onGeffen Records, founding members Kevn Kinney and Tim Nielsen find themselves enjoying amilestone anniversary for the band, having survived the pressures of fame, a shifting musicallandscape, multiple lineup changes, and miles of back roads and highways to arrive here.
A quote from the band’s lead singer, Kevn Kinney, gives a little insight into what Drivin N Cryin is all about: “We are a band that’s like your record collection.” Drawing influence from a wide array of musical elements, Drivin N Cryin has developed a unique sound over the years. Their name derives from the eclectic nature of this sound: a little drivin’ rock n roll and a little country twang. Comfortable with their past and confident in their future, the band has an arsenal of songs, a full tank of gas, and no plans of stopping any time soon.
We are more than excited to have Drivin N Cryin back on the Soundgarden Stage this Spring! They are sure to sell out so be sure to get your tickets NOW!!
