Zac Brown Band Brings A Southern Voice to NYC’s Mercury Lounge on August 26th

The Zac Brown Band plays over 200 shows a year, and as one journalist put it, they “might just be one of the hardest-working group of guys in the business. How else do you describe a guy who can make his band sound like Jimmy Buffett, Bob Marley, Robert Earl Keen and James Taylor, often within the course of two or three songs?” (Post & Courier, SC)

Equal parts country, bluegrass, southern rock, pop and reggae, the Zac Brown Band has a sound that rocks crowds everywhere it plays. “It’s kind of crazy how we can go to a place where no one’s heard of us before and by the time we leave people are singing the songs,” Zac Brown says.

Having opened for everyone from Sugarland and Alan Jackson, to B.B. King and Etta James, the Zac Brown Band crosses many genres with their “string band/bluegrass-meets-Southern rock set of solid originals, complete with three-part harmony” (San Antonio Express).

The Zac Brown Band brings its distinctive sound to New York’s Mercury Lounge on August 26th performing songs from their forthcoming album ‘The Foundation,’ set for release in early fall.
