Nitty Gritty Dirt Band - All The Good Times: The Farewell Tour

CRITIC’S PICK
Thurs. Aug 28

Nitty Gritty Dirt Band, Jack Schneider, Atlanta Symphony Hall — Jeff Hanna and Jimmie Fadden are the sole remaining members of this longstanding county/folk/bluegrass/Americana band. They are calling this their farewell tour after six decades of playing live albeit with regularly changing personnel. Which means you’ll get a full two hours of songs fans will know along with a helping of Dylan covers from their most recent 2022 recording. The Dirt Band is best recognized for three volumes of Will the Circle Be Unbroken albums that brought legendary guests to assist with a historical traipse through American roots classics. But it seems that their longtime circle will be disrupted now after they disband, which makes this final go-round a must-see event for fans of roots American music. — Hal Horowitz
