I think everybody is hoping and looking for something better right now." "I thought, 'What headspace is humanity in as a whole?' That's pretty hard to argue with that. "Most of our albums have been named either for a song on the album or a lyric, and this time I didn't want to do that," Starr says. I love the fact that our records are sort of a ride, with different types of songs and different vibes." "My favorite albums through the years are built that way, too. "That's one of my favorite things about Blackberry Smoke albums-there's a lot of variety," Starr says.
Rich instrumental flourishes-keening fiddle, solemn organ and bar-band piano boogie-add further depth and resonance. Songs hew toward easygoing roots-rock ("Run Away From It All") and Southern rock stomps ("The Crooked Kind"), as well as stripped-down acoustic numbers ("I've Got This Song") and bruising alt-country ("Nobody Gives A Damn"). (For good measure, the latter also topped Billboard's Americana/Folk album chart.) Find A Light, Blackberry Smoke's sixth studio album, doubles down on diversity. This fluidity has paid off handsomely, in the form of two Billboard chart-topping country albums, 2015's Holding All The Roses and 2016's Like An Arrow. Since emerging from Atlanta in the early '00s, the quintet-vocalist/lead guitarist Charlie Starr, guitarist/vocalist Paul Jackson, bassist/vocalist Richard Turner, drummer Brit Turner and keyboardist Brandon Still-has become known for a singular sound indebted to classic rock, blues, country and folk. Pigeonholing Blackberry Smoke has never been easy. Chairs can be rented at the Beer ID tent. SEATING: Bring your own or rent one of our chairs at the event.
