Drew Holcomb & The Neighbors
September 14 @ 7:00 pm - 9:00 pm
$55 – $94
There are no strangers at a Drew Holcomb show. For the better part of two decades, the award-winning songwriter has brought his audience together night after night. He turns his shows into celebrations of community, collaboration, and contemporary American roots music.
“Strangers No More”, the ninth album from Drew Holcomb & The Neighbors, celebrates that sense of togetherness. Produced by Cason Cooley, it expands the band’s mix of timeless songwriting. It also expands the mix of modern-day Laurel Canyon folk, Americana, and heartland rock & roll.
“All The Money in the World” has groove that showcases The Neighbors’ musicality, and blasts of brass punctuate the song. This marks the band’s first song to feature horns. “That’s On You, That’s On Me” makes room for barrelhouse piano, slide guitar, and the greasy grit of a juke joint rock band. “On a Roll” and “Possibility” are Springsteen-sized rock & roll melodramas that wail and exalt, their cinematic arrangements built for the large rooms that Holcomb regularly plays these days. “Fly” is a reflective, finger-plucked folksong.
Finally, there’s “Dance With Everybody,” a tribute of the show that brims with joyful optimism. It’s a feeling that was often missing during the band’s earlier years, when their shows weren’t nearly as packed. Song by song, “Strangers No More” offers an all-encompassing view, not only of the places Drew Holcomb & The Neighbors have been, but where they’re headed next, too. It’s an invitation into the band’s world. Strangers no more, indeed.
Drew Holcomb & The Neighbors will be performing at Maryland Hall, and doors open at 6:00 pm. Get your tickets here!
