Those Legendary Hucklebucks with Whiskey Daredevils

March 16 @ 8:00 pm - 11:30 pm

$10

“Hillbilly Death Wrock” from the slag pits of the steel city. For over a decade your Legendary Hucklebucks have been menacing the local music scene in their home town of Pittsburgh, PA. With their own style of roots music fueled with just enough attitude & swagger to make a preacher kick out a stained glass window on Easter Sunday. 2004 saw the release of “Rattle all night long and shake you” & since then your Legendary Hucklebucks sat quiet, staying the course, honing their sound, and mastering their craft waiting for the moment to unleash GLORY!! Like a freight train from hell, chugging along the rails of destruction with a thunderous assault that could be described as pre-light emitting diode euphoric, these 4 desperado’s are a force to be reckoned with. LOCK UP YOUR WOMEN, HIDE YO LIQUOR, FOR THE GREAT DAY OF WRATH IS COMING AND YOUR LEGENDARY HUCKLEBUCKS ARE COMING…..FOR YOU!

“Living, more or less, up to the potentially overblown self-description of “a freight train from hell,” the band’s latest release delivers a collection of songs which span country, psychobilly, heavy metal and good-old-fashioned rock ‘n’ roll. If that sounds like a lot, know that — 10 years in — the Hucklebucks have developed quite a talent for subtle genre-blending, even if that’s just about the only subtle thing about them. The songwriting has a cohesive feel, and the individual tracks, though diverse, hang together. Fans of Reverend Horton Heat or Hank III or Danzig — or, weirdly enough, the Doors — will likely find something to enjoy here. It may not be a reinvention of the pompadour, but, dang, it’s a lot of fun.” – Margaret Welsh, Pittsburgh City Paper, May 6, 2015
