6 String Drag Concert History

6 String Drag is an American honky tonk roots rock band formed in 1993 in Raleigh, North Carolina, by singer and guitarist Kenny Roby and bassist Rob Keller. The band is regarded as one of the pioneers of the nascent US alt-country movement playing clubs alongside Whiskeytown, Drive-By Truckers and Son Volt. The band's 1997 album, "High Hat" was produced by Steve Earle. The band's style ranged from old-style country (with a hint of soul and gospel) to rock.
