After five decades, 38 SPECIAL continues bringing their signature blast of Southern Rock to over 100 cities annually. At every show, thousands of audience members are amazed by the explosive power of the band's performance. Their many Gold and Platinum album awards stand as testament to the endurance of a legendary powerhouse.
With sales over 20 million, most associate the band with their arena-rock pop smashes, “Hold On Loosely,” “Rockin’ Into the Night,” “Caught Up in You,” “Fantasy Girl,” “If I’d Been the One,” “Back Where You Belong,” “Chain Lightnin’,” “Second Chance,” and more. Timeless hits that are immediately recognizable from the first opening chord.
Guitarist/vocalist and founding member, Don Barnes, says it's all about maintaining that intensity in their live shows. “We never wanted to be one of those bands that had maybe gotten a little soft, or complacent over the years. We're a team and it's always been kind of an unspoken rule that we don’t slack up, we stack up. We go out there every night to win.”
Completing the team is bassist Barry Dunaway, drummer Gary Moffatt, and keyboardist/vocalist Bobby Capps. The most recent addition to the band is legendary virtuoso guitarist and vocalist Jerry Riggs.
