CRITIC'S PICK:
Fri., July 3
Drivin N Cryin, Glover Park/Marietta Square - The indefatigable Kevn Kinney and his equally tireless comrades recently released Crushing Flowers, one of DNC's finest albums in a career that began in the mid-'80s. Even with some lapses between recordings, the band remains a powerful force in Southern rock and folk. They play around often, but this pre-Independence Day gig allows them to work politics into the set, something the chatty Kinney is likely to do. Musically, you'll get the "Honeysuckle Blue"/"Straight to Hell" hits they have to replicate, plus a large swath of the new release which is, rather remarkably, as powerful as some of their best stuff. - Hal Horowitz

From the venue:

In celebration of the 250th Anniversary of the signing of the Declaration of Independence and the United States of America's Freedom, the City of Marietta is proud to announce a FREE 4th of July kick-off concert! Independence Eve will feature Atlanta’s own Drivin N Cryin to headlining the evening's event. Residents and visitors are invited to bring blankets and lawn chairs and enjoy an evening of live music and patriotic celebration as the City begins its weekend of Independence Day festivities. There will be no table or VIP reservations for this event. Formed in Atlanta, Drivin N Cryin first took the stage in October 1985 at the legendary 688 Club. Known for their electrifying live performances and unique blend of Southern rock, folk, and punk influences, the band quickly built a loyal following throughout the Southeast.
