Drive-By Truckers
The Big To-Do
(ATO)
Releasing: 16 March


Alt-Southern rock juggernaut, the Drive-By Truckers, have flipped from their New West Records home over to Dave Matthews’ ATO Records for their upcoming release. The move heralds a stronger embrace of the “rock” side of their sound as Patterson Hood describes it as “very melodic and more rocking than anything we’ve done since disc two of Southern Rock Opera.”
