Fresh out of recording “Youth Is In Our Blood” with a Grammy winning team at the legendary Levon Helm Studios (Woodstock, NY) in December 2009, The Dirty Guv’nahs are poised for a huge year. They have been spreading their rock gospel across the Southeast for four years now, showcasing their sound at Bonnaroo, Wakarusa, Musikfest, Bele Chere, and Sundown in the City. They’ve also had the opportunity to open shows for Zac Brown Band, Levon Helm Band, Blues Traveler, Grace Potter and the Nocturnals, Robert Earl Keen, Drive by Truckers, The Whigs, Band of Skulls, Cross Canadian Ragweed,Cracker and Sister Hazel.
Their sound has been best described as “a passionate, jubilant slice of rock-meets-Americana.” In their hometown of Knoxville, Tennessee they’ve graduated from playing packed out bars where latecomers are turned away from the door, to playing theaters where capacity crowds consistently cram in and press against the stage to hear another three hour helping of what Metro Pulse dubbed, “rock the way God intended.”
