The band (Rick Miller – guitar and vocals, Mary Huff – bass and vocals, Dave Hartman – drums) has been playing together for over 30 years. Their musical journey has taken them from all-night North Carolina house parties to late night TV talk shows (Conan O’Brien, The Tonight Show), from performing at the base of Mt. Fuji in Japan to rockin’ out for the inmates at North Carolina correctional facilities. They’ve shared a stage with many musical luminaries including Link Wray, Loretta Lynn, Hasil Adkins and Patti Smith. Their music has been featured in movies and TV, parodied by Weird Al, and used to sell everything from diamonds to pork sausage. In 2014 the band was honored by the Southern Folklife Collection at the University of North Carolina Chapel Hill with an exhibition featuring their music and cultural contributions. Their legendary live shows are a testament to the therapeutic powers of foot-stomping, butt-shaking rock and roll and what Rolling Stone dubbed “a hell raising rock and roll party.” At Home with Southern Culture on the Skids is the latest full length album from the band and was released in March of 2021. It was recorded during the stay at home period of the pandemic when the band was at home and not touring. The album consists of 11 tracks recorded and mixed in Rick Miller’s living room with some additional tracks recorded at his studio, The Kudzu Ranch. The first radio single off the album is “Run Baby Run”—a rocking number with deep garage roots. SCOTS bassist Mary Huff provides an urgent vocal while the band pulls back the throttle on a full race fuzz fest—cause she’s gotta to go fast! Run Baby Run! The other songs on the album are a combination of the band’s unique mix of musical genres: rock and roll, surf, folk and country—all a bit off-center, what Rick proudly calls “our wobbly Americana”. Rick goes on, “We put a few more acoustic guitars on this one, as you would expect if you recorded in your living room, but it still rocks like SCOTS. So put your headphones on, get in your favorite chair/sofa/recliner, put on “At Home With” and let’s hang out for a while.” IT'S SNAKES Starting in early 2015, singer Hope Nicholls took tentative steps in the daunting shoes of Phil Collins and Levon Helms, attempting to keep the beat on drums while crooning. The former vocalist for 80’s college rock main-stays Fetchin Bones, 90’s pissed-off Sugarsmack and 2000’s secret Snagglepuss hit the skins with a vengeance and zero shites given. Aaron Pitkin added his signature riffage: It’s Snakes marked his return to guitar, a first since the ‘Bones epoch. Long time collaborator Darrin Gray (bass) and fellow member of Snagglepuss coached Nicholls on drumming and believed it just might work. Guitarist Greg Walsh believed as well and the dream was real. Nicholls took the name It’s Snakes from a Lynda Barry comic strip that featured a nonchalant retail encounter with Medusa, legendary snake goddess and first female super villain. The eponymous first album was recorded over hot dogs and beers, July 4th weekend 2016 in Nashville’s legendary Sound Emporium Studio with Chris Shinn as producer. It’s Snakes II was released in summer of 2018, also recorded by Mr. Shinn. The year 2020 rolled around and the Snakes sent the Don Dixon recorded and produced LX into the universe just in time for the pandemic times! It’s Snakes unleashed YES upon the world in 2023 with Dixon back at the knobs. It was an affirmation of life after the isolated times of COVID. After dropping two singles, the band released the long awaited 5th album RECORD RECORD in June of 2026, produced by another amazing musician - Stephen Warwick. With ten more barn burners, It’s Snakes and their record RECORD RECORD prove they are far from retired! The It’s Snakes catalogue shows a range of influences and style that can that can be traced through decades of adoration of all genres, trash and treasure alike, a little Rolling Stones, a little Pylon, a little James Brown, a lot all their own. - **Event URL**: https://allevents.in/asheville/southern-culture-on-the-skids-w-its-snakes-at-the-grey-eagle/200030526680343 - **Event Categories**: entertainment, music, live-music, parties, performances, sports, festivals, exhibitions, nonprofit, dog - **Interested Audience**: - total_interested_count: 46 ## Ticket Details ## Event venue details - **city**: Asheville - **state**: NC - **country**: United States - **location**: The Grey Eagle - **lat**: 35.587062310337 - **long**: -82.56436070489 - **full address**: The Grey Eagle, Grey Eagle Music Hall, 185 Clingman Ave, Asheville, NC 28801, United States ## Event gallery - **Alt text**: Southern Culture on the Skids w/ It's Snakes at The Grey Eagle - **Image URL**: https://cdn-az.allevents.in/events7/banners/fb2b9c62eb6fabc19caf9e93d5e86d56ab9250af191d240bc33a7f8ea98b91cd-rimg-w1200-h720-dc080808-gmir?v=1788553090 ## FAQs - **Q**: When and where is Southern Culture on the Skids w/ It's Snakes at The Grey Eagle being held? - **A:** Southern Culture on the Skids w/ It's Snakes at The Grey Eagle takes place on Fri, 04 Dec, 2026 at 08:00 pm to Fri, 04 Dec, 2026 at 08:00 pm at The Grey Eagle, Grey Eagle Music Hall, 185 Clingman Ave, Asheville, NC 28801, United States. - **Q**: Who is organizing Southern Culture on the Skids w/ It's Snakes at The Grey Eagle? - **A:** Southern Culture on the Skids w/ It's Snakes at The Grey Eagle is organized by The Grey Eagle. - **Q**: What has been the experience of attendees at The Grey Eagle's events? - **A:** Attendees have given The Grey Eagle a rating of 5/5 based on reviews from early attendees on AllEvents.
