Southern rock all-stars, Anders Osbourne, JJ Grey, Luther Dickinson and Marc Broussard have teamed up once again to tour as the Southern Soul Assembly. Listen to these musicians trade in their hard-rockin’, foot-stompin, guitar-slingin’ styles for some good ole stripped down southern soul. This show was especially significant for Anders as it was a homecoming of sorts.

The format of these shows affords each musician to give introductions to songs and tell stories. If you have ever been to a Mofro show, hearing JJ Grey tell stories is one of the best parts of the concert!

Halfway through the set, special guests Alvin Youngblood Hart (guitar) & Ivan Neville (keys) join the assembly for the remainder of the show.

The group plays originals from their respective repertoires and sprinkles in a cover or two. The most notable cover of the evening was the last song of the set—Rolling Stones’ “Wild Horses.”
