CRITIC’S PICK: Chris Knight

Recommended by Hal Horowitz as part of Creative Loafing’s May 2026 Critic’s Picks

Thurs., May 7
Chris Knight
Mic Harrison, Eddie Owen Presents at Red Clay

Hard touring outlaw country swamp rocker Knight is no stranger to the Atlanta area. He has been a regular at Eddie’s Attic for years but moves OTP to continue his relationship with Owen at this Duluth theatre. The larger venue and stage adapt especially well to Knight’s gritty, tough storytelling music, often compared to that of Steve Earle, with throaty vocals similar to Paul Thorn. His songs are as gritty and hard-nosed as his characters, many derived from encounters in his Kentucky home state. Opener Americana rocker Harrison has been a member of the V-Roys, Superdrag and, for the past 20 years, The High Score. This is a great double bill of uncompromising American rocking. — Hal Horowitz
