Calendar Pick: The Vegabonds

The Vegabonds

Originally formed in Alabama and currently based in Nashville, TN, The Vegabonds are a five-piece alternative country rock band that hit the ground running in 2010 with the release of its debut album Dear Revolution. The album contains the band’s most popular song to date, “Shaky Hands,” and secured them an early solid fanbase. Since then, they have put out five more studio albums, most recently Young & Unafraid, which came out in June of this year. Rolling Stone writer Josh Crutchmer says the record “finds the Vegabonds pushing their music beyond the mix of country and Southern rock that has been the group’s trademark from the outset,” now incorporating elements of blues and soul. The band is currently touring the album across the Southeastern U.S. with support from North Carolina-based indie/alternative rock band Harvey Street.
