Alabama 3 Acoustic

Alabama 3 Acoustic

Friday, 31 May 2024, 8.00pm

Heeding Woody Guthrie's maxim, Alabama 3 have never feared the reduction of their technology. Consequently, Alabama 3 acoustic is brave enough to go out on the road armed only with a battered acoustic guitar and harmonica, preaching Guthrie's word that 'this machine kills fascists.'

In homage to the classic delta blues slide players like Mississippi Fred McDowell, Howlin’ Wolf, John Lee Hooker and their own Rockfree Base, they present their narco-acoustic slant on Alabama 3 and the music that has inspired them along the way.

Rock Freebase:“I've developed a style of guitar that combines elements of both MacDowell and White, with a hint of banjo picking, and tried to give it a more modern, urban twist.”

Complete with Larry Love's whiskey-soaked vocals, Devlin Love’s soulful chorus and Nick Reynolds bad-ass blues on harmonica, they provide a raucous show, which is in no way constrained by the boring maxim that often goes with acoustic gigs!

Alabama 3 Acoustic have played all around the world in festivals, theatre’s, concert halls and prisons.

Doors 7.30pm | Show 8.00pm
