About this playlist
True to their roots, Patterson Hood and Mike Cooley's Drive-By Truckers take a blue-collar approach to music. Their alt-country sensibilities and constant touring built a dedicated fan base, and the band rewarded followers with ambitious works like 2001's Southern Rock Opera, an acclaimed concept album that produced crossover hits. The success led to a fruitful three-album period with Jason Isbell added as a guitarist, while 2014's English Oceans shines as a fine testament to the appeal of the band's southern rock storytelling.
