The Dead South have never been about constant reinvention, but about full commitment to their own singular way. With confidence in their sound and style and trust in each other, The Dead South arrive at the cusp of explosive global success in an enviable, and well-earned, position: total autonomy. It doesn't really matter what you call their music - progressive bluegrass, alternative Americana, country, folk and western, what matters is that this is theirs, and people from all different backgrounds, beliefs, experiences, languages and ages love it.
True blue right through, The Dead South don't shy away from ruffling traditionalists' feathers from time to time, as they flawlessly execute banjo rolls and lightning-fast mandolin tremolos, 3-part harmonies and songs of classic themes -murder ballads, disloyalty, ghosts and the like, all with a wink and a smile. As they continue their climb to the top, The Dead South have learned an important lesson: If you're going to be outsiders, you'd better be great.
Confirmed by the passion of their Dead South cosplaying fans, who go to concerts in the band's signature look, this four-piece acoustic set from the middle of the Canadian prairies have found their people. Good Company, as they call themselves, is a global community of vastly dissimilar folks who might not see eye to eye, but who stand shoulder to shoulder at the gigs.
I was not familiar with the band, but my son enjoyed them. I went to see what they were about. Great show - enjoyed it tremendously.
The opening act, Jake Vaadeland, was really good. I wish they had had a longer set, especially if it would have cut the Hooten Hollers short. That band was awful. Dude could wail but needs to pick a different genre. The girl played really well but all three together were just a hot mess. The Dead South were amazing. They are so much better live! They perform so well together. It is one of the best live shows I've seen. They have great on stage chemistry. I know Memphis probably wasn't the best stop for them but I truly hope they decide to come back.
We enjoyed The Dead South. Our only complaint is that it was a Monday night and they didn’t start playing until 9:45. Minglewood Hall doesn’t have chairs and standing from 8 until showtime was miserable.
Great show filled with energy and of course, GREAT MUSIC!!!! Everything from the lighting to the sound to the music....GO SEE THEM!!!!!!!
Stage design was incredible. They are so much better live. Recordings don't quite do them justice.
When I first stepped foot into the venue, I knew I made the right decision to come out to see this show. The set piece of the stage was made into a traditional old town seen in any western film. Being a fan of these films and growing up in the same dress as the western theme meant I felt right at home! Then once the first openers came onto stage the entire room just got quiet and the entire audience knew. We where in for a once-in-a-lifetime experience. Both opening acts brought their music to life and brought the rest of us back in time. To a time when it wasn't about making the biggest noise or being the loudest band in town. It was just about good storytelling through our voices and our instruments. Jake Vaadeland and the Sturgeon River Boys encapsulated that feeling of classic rock and soothing dulcet tones mixed with original bluegrass inflection. The Hooten Hollers brought everyone to the present with their unique blend of heavy metal and country blues. And then there was The Dead South. Words cannot describe the sheer joy and amazement I felt watching this ensemble. Despite not having drunk a drop of alcohol or taken a hit of anything substance, I felt myself transported back into the time of the backdrop with the way these men masterfully played their music. True masters of their craft, the Dead South made sure that everyone would have gotten their money's worth by using a mix of old songs and singles from their newly released Album "Chains and Stakes". The audience and I were completely captivated from the first pluck to the final strum of the performance with these men from Regina, Saskatchewan, Canada.
The Dead South is foot-stomping awesome! You can tell they enjoy performing for everyone! I can’t get enough of them!
The Dead South are a fantastic band. Great musicians and lots of energy! Both opening bands; Jake Vaadeland & The Sturgeon River Boys and The Hooten Hallers were really good. Nice to see The Dead South give some stage time to some up and comers. House of Blues Houston is a great venue. Up close, decent acoustics, great atmosphere and cool bartenders. A great night out!!
10 out of 10 will be going again. Dead South killed it, venue sounded great. The show was so polished and professional. Place was clean, seats were comfy. Band was on point.
Neat venue, outstanding staff, but the sound sucked. Nothing but overdriven bass and the random banjo riff. The vocals were so bad I couldn't make out any lyrics other than an occasional word
