April 20th 2023 : Drive By Truckers with special guest Lydia Loveless

21+ | Doors 6pm | Opener 8pm | $38 Advance | $45 Day of Show

In their first tour through central Florida post lockdown, the Muscle Shoals by way of Athens Ga. Americana legends Drive-By Truckers (DBT for short) bring along their new album Welcome 2 Club XIII, as well as the alt-country fav. Lydia Loveless as special guest opener for what promises to be a show that cannot be missed. April 20th 2023 at the restored & rennovated 1924 historic music venue the Floridian (fka the State Theatre) in St.Petersburg Florida.

"Welcome 2 Club XIII follows Drive-By Truckers’ pair of 2020 albums, The Unraveling and The New OK. The new album gets its title from a venue where founding members Patterson Hood and Mike Cooley performed at the start of their careers. “There were no cool bars in town and Club XIII was the best we had,” Hood said in a statement, “but it wasn’t all that good, and our band [Adam’s House Cat] wasn’t particularly liked there. From time to time the owner would throw us a Wednesday night or let us open for a hair-metal band we were a terrible fit for, and everyone would hang out outside until we were done playing. It wasn’t very funny at the time, but it’s funny to us now.”

"Drive-By Truckers primarily recorded Welcome 2 Club XIII at producer David Barbe’s studio in Athens, Georgia. The album features background vocals from Margo Price, Schaefer Llana, and R.E.M.’s Mike Mills." - Pitchfork Media
