Futurebirds

7PM Doors | Show 8PM | ALL AGES

Momentum. Evolution. Expansion. Those are important traits for a critically-acclaimed group that recently celebrated its 15-year anniversary. "Whenyou've been a band for as long as we have, there's a lot of moving on," saysThomas Johnson. "We just keep going, because that's how you keep thingsfresh. That's how you keep the spark." By matching the sharply-written songsof three distinct frontmen with a progressive mix of rock & roll, electrified folk,and cosmic American roots music, Futurebirds have built an audience that'sas wide as the band's own sound. WithEasy Company, Futurebirds' fifthstudio album, that sound reaches a new peak.Featuring four songs apiece from singer/songwriters Womack, Johnson, andCarter King,Easy Companyfeels like a celebration of the tight-knit bonds thathave held Futurebirds aloft since 2008. Back then, the guys were collegestudents at the University of Georgia, building a buzz around town with showsat fraternity houses and local bars. Years later, they've become headliners atbucket-list venues like The Ryman and The Fillmore, collaborating with fellowgenre benders like My Morning Jacket's Carl Broemel along the way.ForFuturebirds, the road goes on forever.Easy Companyis the latest stop on ajourney that's still unfolding, winding its own path through American rock &roll, giving Futurebirds and the grassroots community they've created—theBirdfam—a new place to land
