About Patterson Hood
Patterson Hood is an acclaimed singer-songwriter, guitarist, and co-founder of the Southern rock band Drive-By Truckers. Born in Muscle Shoals, Alabama, Hood grew up immersed in the region’s rich musical heritage, with his father, David Hood, being a renowned session bassist for the Muscle Shoals Rhythm Section. Drawing inspiration from storytelling traditions and a passion for rock, country, and soul, Hood’s music often explores themes of Southern identity, social justice, and personal introspection. While best known as frontman, singer, songwriter, and guitar player for Drive-By Truckers, he is also a writer of essays, columns, and short stories as well as a solo performer and producer.
Since forming Drive-By Truckers in 1996 with Mike Cooley, Hood has been a driving force behind the band’s narrative-driven sound, blending gritty, guitar-heavy arrangements with evocative lyrics. Albums like Southern Rock Opera (2001) and The Dirty South (2004) have solidified their reputation as one of the most influential Southern rock bands of their generation.
Beyond his work with the Truckers, Hood has released solo albums such as Killers and Stars (2004) and Heat Lightning Rumbles in the Distance (2012), showcasing his versatility as a songwriter. His newest solo album, Exploding Trees & Airplane Screams, produced by Chris Funk (The Decemberists) will be released via ATO Records in February 2025. Whether fronting the Truckers or performing solo, Patterson Hood remains a vital force in modern music, celebrated for his ability to turn life’s raw realities into compelling, soul-stirring art, and continues to be a powerful voice in contemporary Americana and Southern rock.

About John Moreland
John Moreland is a Tulsa-based singer-songwriter whose stark, emotionally direct songs have earned praise from outlets like The New York Times, NPR’s Fresh Air, and Pitchfork, placing him firmly in the top tier of modern Americana artists. After a decade of steady touring and a run of acclaimed albums, he made two bold moves: first with 2022’s Birds in the Ceiling, a subtly electronic, atmospheric turn that expanded his sound, and then by stepping away from the road entirely for a year, even ditching his smartphone for six months to reset and reflect.
That period of quiet led to 2024’s Visitor, a folk-rock record he wrote, recorded, and largely performed himself at home in Bixby, Oklahoma over just ten days. Intimate, immediate, and quietly powerful, Visitor marks a return to the stripped-back, self-recorded approach of his breakthrough albums In the Throes and High on Tulsa Heat, and finds Moreland cutting through the noise of the modern world to reconnect with the deep, truth-seeking songwriting that has defined his career.
