Press release here:

Those Darlins are playing Asheville on Thursday,  January 7th with Kovacs & the Polar Bear and If You Wannas at the Grey Eagle. 

After 140+ gigs in 2009, the word is getting out that Those Darlins are hardly just a “quirky, Carter Family-influenced country-pop” act… but a rock rock rock band that is delivering “full-on, double-time, fuck-you rock shows.”  Releasing their self-titled debut album in 2009 and touring with everyone from Dan Auerbach to King Khan & BBQ Show, Wanda Jackson to Black Lips, the girls and Sheriff Lin continue their never ending tour at the top of 2010.  In an interview with Nashville Lifestyles magazine, Kelley Darlin explains, “People are looking for something genuine, even if it’s rough around the edges… Sometimes people need an excuse to have fun. When you get into the stress of having a family and working, we remind you that you don’t have to be just one thing––you can have fun and try new things.”  
Here are your January and February excuses to have fun. Giddy up.
