Tickets Go On Sale Friday, Feb. 28 for the Tuesday, June 3 Show
TAMPA, Fla. (Feb. 25, 2014) – Tampa Theatre and Soulshine Music are proud to announce that Drive-By Truckers will perform live on the Theatre’s historic stage at 7:30 p.m. Tuesday, June 3.

Founded in 1996, Drive-By Truckers (DBT) are an alternative country/Southern rock band based in Athens, Georgia, comprised of members Mike Cooley, Patterson Hood, Brad Morgan, Jay Gonzalez and Matt Patton. Because Hood and Cooley are originally from The Shoals region of Northern Alabama, the band strongly identifies with the cotton state.
With their latest album, English Oceans, releasing on March 4 of this year, Cooley says, “This lineup is so direct. It can go from this chainsaw rock ‘n roll to very delicate, pretty-sounding stuff. We wrote a lot of those kinds of songs, and this lineup got all of that well.”
Looking at the accomplishments of English Oceans from the perspective of DBT’s nearly three-decade history, both Cooley and Hood decline to hedge their bets on the quality of their latest work.
