Drivin N Cryin w/ Laid Back Country Picker
City Winery Philadelphia presents Drivin N Cryin w/ Laid Back Country Picker live on September 8th at 7:30pm.
Drivin N Cryin is an enduring American rock band whose roots-forward sound and uncompromisingspirit have made them a vital force since forming in Atlanta, Georgia in 1985.
Blending Southernrock grit, folk storytelling, and hard-charging rock & roll, the band built a reputation early on as a must-see live act and a songwriter’s band with depth far beyond trends. Led by singer-songwriter Kevn Kinney and anchored by bassist Tim Nielsen and drummer Dave Johnson, Drivin N Cryin broke through nationally with a run of influential albums that helped define late-’80s and early-’90s American rock.
Songs like “Fly Me Courageous,” “Honeysuckle Blue," “Straight to Hell,” “Build a Fire,” and “Scarred But Smarter” became staples of rock and AAA radio, with Fly Me Courageous earning Gold certification and remaining a cornerstone of the band’s catalog.
While they emerged during the MTV era, Drivin N Cryin never disappeared. Over four decades, they’ve remained a consistently touring, recording band — releasing new music, evolving their sound, and cultivating a loyal, multigenerational audience.
Their influence extends well beyond their own recordings; “Straight to Hell” found new life through covers and collaborations that introduced the song to entirely new audiences.
