American Band is the 11th studio album by Drive-By Truckers and was released during the tumultuous year of 2016, it's politically charged lyrics reflecting those troubled times. The Chicago Tribune called it ""one of the band's strongest front-to-back albums."" Rolling Stone and NPR deemed it one of the best albums of that year. It is reissued here, in another election year, with a bonus LP of live recordings, updated liners from Patterson Hood and repackaged with archival artwork from Wes Freed. Shadow Wave/Frosted Silver 2 LP. Limited Edition

2016 release. On the 20th anniversary of being a band, Drive-By Truckers return with an urgent and timely protest album, made for our times, and in particular this election year. Songwriters Patterson Hood and Mike Cooley have made an epic statement and what NPR Music says "" very well might be their greatest album."" Drive-By Truckers are based in Athens, GA though two out of five current members (Patterson Hood and Mike Cooley) are originally from The Shoals region of Northern Alabama, and the band strongly identifies with Alabama. The band currently consists of Cooley (lead vocals, guitar, banjo), Hood (lead vocals, guitar), Brad Morgan (drums), Jay Gonzalez (keys/guitar/accordion/backing vocals) and Matt Patton (bass guitar).
