About

Blackberry Smoke on Tour

Though they've had their biggest success in the country market, the guys in Blackberry Smoke are rock 'n' rollers at heart. When they hit the concert stage, that becomes immediately apparent, but of course, so does the twangy side of their sound. Ultimately, what comes across is a roots-rocking blend that incorporates the influences of classic Southern rock, '70s/'80s heartland rockers and yes, a dash of modern country. And whether they're delivering a chugging good-time tune like "Rock and Roll Again" or a reflective ballad like "Let Me Down Easy," what comes through the loudest is the band's authenticity. These ol' boys are the real deal, playing it their own way with no nonsense and no rock-star moves. And since they do exactly what they feel, don't be surprised if that extends to covers of songs by their favorite artists such as Little Feat, The Grateful Dead or Tom Petty & The Heartbreakers.

Blackberry Smoke in Concert

Blackberry Smoke has always done things their own way, rising to stardom by building an audience from the ground up, remaining resolutely independent and staying true to their roots. The band formed in Atlanta, Georgia, in 2000, with singer/guitarist Charlie Starr, guitarist Paul Jackson, and brothers Richard and Brit Turner on bass and drums, respectively, and that lineup remained intact into their breakthrough and beyond, adding keyboardist Brandon Still in 2009. They released their debut album, Bad Luck Ain't No Crime, in 2003, but it wasn't until their third album, 2012's The Whippoorwill, that Blackberry Smoke started achieving major commercial traction. Their next record, 2015's Holding All the Roses, reached No. 1 on the country charts as well as No. 29 on the pop tally, underscoring the band's pan-genre appeal. Their homegrown blend of Southern rock and country has remained authentic and untainted through it all.

    Blackberry Smoke was on fire

    by mainrod2001 on 2/10/14Newport Music Hall - Columbus

    Great show, the guys of BB Smoke kept the night moving playing songs from both A Little Piece of Dixie and The Whipporwhil. The band covered The Rolling Stones, Led Zepplin, and Allman Brothers. All in all a great expierence.

    Smoke was smokin'

    by Sherbs28 on 2/10/14Varsity Theater - Minneapolis

    My first time seeing Blackberry Smoke, and won't be my last. Played a great set filled with my faves. I always appreciate a band that can pull off album sound in their live shows. BS is one of those bands. Highly recommended.

    Blackberry Smoke's Fire was Intense!

    by JohnnyDeppIsRango on 2/10/14Newport Music Hall - Columbus

    Blackberry Smoke sold out the Newport in Columbus and it was evident why. This band out of Georgia continues to build an audience with their unique take on country rock, effortlessly blending classic rock with the incredible writing of Charley Starr. Plus the way they worked in slices of tunes from Led Zeppelin, the Stones and the Allman Brothers sounded like they fit right into their own great music. Thanks for visiting Columbus and hope to see you again soon!

    Smokin

    by Dani724 on 2/10/14Newport Music Hall - Columbus

    Blackberry Smoke was great. David Allen Coe joined them on stage, awesome! They did some cover songs that were classics and they did them great. Their original stuff was great and they played all my faves! Also, this was my first time at theNewport and I was surprised how big it is! It is a gorgeous venue, although the girls bathrooms could use an expansion.

    Got My Smoke On!

    by bcis93 on 1/28/14Egyptian Room at Old National Centre - Indianapolis

    Nice venue. No seating standing but plenty of room. Several bars with mixed drinks, beer, & some finger food. No lines. Opening band the Delta Saints were ok. BBS rocked it. Played most of their popular tunes & Charlie interacted with the audience. Band was tight & on point. Sound was spot on, clear, not to loud. All in all a great preformance. I drove up from Nashville in sub freezing weather to attend.

    Smokin' with Blackberry... sweeeet

    by GZIGGY on 1/28/14Saint Andrews Hall - Detroit

    Show was excellent, glad I was able to show up. Blackberry Smoke is awsome to see. Love Skynard style southern rock. VERY REFRESHING TO SEE NEW TALENT FROM THE SOUTH. If this band doesn't get your body moving... don't go! Opening band was very good to boogie with also. Good tour.

    Blackberry Smoke rocks!

    by h1pop on 1/28/14Saint Andrews Hall - Detroit

    From beginning to end, these guys bring it. They rocked their way through so many of their southern rock / alt-country hits we didn't stop dancing all night. It's obvious why they were named to the "Ones to Watch" list. Don't miss them on this tour.

    Blackberry Smoke was good

    by Blues25 on 1/27/14The Pageant - St Louis

    Blackberry Smoke was better than I thought. They kinda lost steam there at the last. When they came back for their encore - their momentum was gone.

    Great night out!

    by Tiffnscott on 1/27/14The Pageant - St Louis

    We love Blackberry Smoke and their concerts are awesome! I love that they pump incense into the venue to give a cool vibe! The Delta Saints impressed us as well! Would love to see them in concert again!

    Dixie Kings Excellent - Blackberry uninspired

    by Rollumeasy on 1/27/14The Pageant - St Louis

    The opening band Dixie Kings played an outstanding set which brought to life numerous tunes from their recent release. The lead vocalist was soulful and clearly has mastered his material which seemed limitless in it's appeal. Blackberry Smoke then followed with a lackluster performance which either was clearly uninspired or illustrated the limitations of the band/vocalist. Smoke faithfully delivered their hits but the rest of the material was larely forgettable---

    Blackberry Smoke

    by KentJ on 1/27/14Egyptian Room at Old National Centre - Indianapolis

    As always, Blackberry Smoke lit the place up. The opening band, Delta Saints, were very good too. The venue was great once inside. However, early entry was supposed to get in at 6:50. Due to the cold weather outside, the venue allowed everyone inside the ticket booth area. This created utter chaos as everyone started to jump in front of others and the staff lost control. Thankfully we still managed front row center stage and had a smokin good time.

    Blackberry Smoke is AMAZING!

    by AmberLou24 on 1/27/14The Pageant - St Louis

    This is the 2nd time that I have seen Blackberry Smoke, but the first time with them as headliners. Their vocal and musical talent is second to none. You can tell this band has stood the test of time and has played together for many years. They are perfectly in sync with one another and know how to jam. This band plays music for all ages, as with my party there were members of the 20s, 40s, 50s, and 60s present and we all loved it! If it hadn't been a school night, my younger child would have attended as well! She loves the band just as much as we do! I highly recommend all check out this band that seems to be the music industry's best kept secret! I hope to see these guys getting radio airplay and even more exposure in the coming months/years! Would definitely go again anytime they are around STL or Southern Illinois!
