Hard Working Americans Announce May 30th Album Release Show in Nashville

Two weeks after Hard Working Americans' 'Rest in Chaos' hits stores, the "gritty, greasy rock & roll" ensemble (Rolling Stone Country) will throw a hometown album-release block party in downtown Nashville on Monday, May 30th. 

The free Memorial Day concert will shine a light on the blend of blues, Southern soul and rule-breaking rock bandmates Todd Snider, Dave Schools, Neal Casal, Duane Trucks, Chad Staehly, and Jesse Aycock dish up with their diverse second album. Equally diverse is the roster of other bands on the bill, including Leftover Salmon, Tim O'Brien+Nick Forster+Bryan Sutton, Sparkle City DJs, Rorey Carroll, and Sophia Scott. Kicking off at 2 p.m. and continuing until 8:30 p.m., the event will bring music, a free photo booth, and kid-friendly games to the corner of Broadway and 1st Ave., directly in front of the Acme Feed & Seed honky-tonk.

Presented by Nashville's Lightning 100 radio station, Hard Working Americans' album-release block party doubles as an awareness event and fundraiser for Blood:Water, an organization that looks to mitigate the HIV and water crises in Africa.
