Product Information

Whippoorwill album Product Description

Atlanta, Georgia's Blackberry Smoke does upward of 250 shows a year, relentlessly crossing and re-crossing the various club, bar, and festival circuits, and the group's classic Southern rock sound, which recalls bands like the Black Crowes and Lynyrd Skynyrd, has been honed to a sharp edge by the constant playing. This is a solid band with a good rhythm section in bassist Richard Turner and drummer Brit Turner, a stand-out keyboardist in Brandon Still, and plenty of electric guitar work from Paul Jackson and lead singer Charlie Starr. Starr's voice is really what makes Blackberry Smoke more than a Southern rock nostalgia act, though. He's a country singer with a rock attitude and heart, and when the song's good, and the band's on board, this is a top-tier group who merge country and rock so seamlessly that it's both at once. There are several very good songs on The Whippoorwill, the band's debut for Zac Brown's Southern Ground label, including the chugging "Six Ways to Sunday," which opens the set, the tell-it-straight-like-it-is small town anti-anthem "One Horse Town" (which sounds like Steve Earle in his heyday), and the cranky, defiant, and determined "Leave a Scar," any of which deserve to be in regular rotation on contemporary country stations, but probably won't be because they sound more like Muscle Shoals productions than they do Nashville. ...See Full Description

The album that will put them over the top.
After seeing this band live in the Summer of 2011 I could not wait to hear their next recording. The Whippoorwill by Blackberry Smoke became a top selling CD shortly after it was released mid August. The recording is everything that the band is and must be heard to get the full affect of the "Smoke" they have been compared to Skynyrd & Marshall Tucker but they have a sound and feel that is all their own. The Whippoorwill features songs that show the bands southern rock & country roots. The musicianship, vocals, and song writing is superb. The Whippoorwill contains songs that could easily be played on Country, Rock, & top 40 radio and will no doubt have hit records.
