Hey Alabama fans!
Shane Martin here. I’m Dixieland Delighted to announce a side project with my band we’ve been working on. An Alabama Tribute called “Songs Of The South”. We’ve had an Alabama medley in our set for quite some time that we love to perform and audiences enjoy. I’ve always admired Alabama’s timeless down home songs and sweet harmonies and thought it would be great to put together an entire set of their music. It feels right at home when we sing one of their many hits and fits right in our wheelhouse with all the vocal harmonies. Adding to the band, I’ve recruited a top notch fiddle/utility musician to get the full Songs Of The South sound.
Be on the lookout for this Alabama tribute show taking the stage across Minnesota and the Midwest and come on out and sing along to some Mountain Music and all the songs you know and love.
