Charlie Starr, founding member and frontman of Blackberry Smoke, set up shop at The Foundry in Athens, Georgia last week for an intimate acoustic show. Starr was joined by a couple of friends including Benji Shanks and Levi Lowrey.
The acoustic set, while not a first for Starr, was definitely a change in direction from a traditional Blackberry Smoke. The set had tons of great covers that showcased not only Starr’s guitar prowess but also his vocal abilities.
