Drive By Truckers

Four out of five of the Drive By Truckers grew up in North Alabama. Patterson Hood co-founded the band with long-time musical partner and fellow Alabama native Mike Cooley and a bunch of really talented Georgia musicians.

After two years on the road the band had morphed into a tight self contained unit - Independent almost to a fault, they also managed to self-finance, record and release a 2 CD set about growing up in Muscle Shoals, and people's misconceptions of Southerners. 2001's Southern Rock Opera seemed to hit a nerve with fans and critics alike, earning a four-star review in Rolling Stone Magazine.

2003 saw the release of DBT's Decoration Day, picked as Album of the Year in Harp Magazine and making Band of the Year in No Depression Magazine. DBT had found its best incarnation, with three guitarists, three songwriters and three front men.
