Iconic Athens-based Southern rock band Drive-By Truckers is returning for its annual series of homecoming shows. Night one of the concert series will feature frontmen Patterson Hood and Mike Cooley’s side project, Dimmer Twins, where the two will perform stripped-down solo and duo work, as well as some DBT songs. Night two will be opened by local band Vision Video, night three by Nuçi’s Space’s Camp Amped Band and The Paranoid Style, and night four by Hans Condor, all followed by headline performances by the Truckers. Nights three and four are already sold out, but tickets for the other dates are still available. Events associated with the homecoming include a pre-party with Thelma and the Sleaze, Bark and Taylor Hollingsworth at Flicker Theatre & Bar and a hangout at Ciné with raffles and tarot readings to benefit Nuçi’s Space on Feb. 16, as well as a cookout and auction event at Nuçi’s Space on Feb. 17.
