Hill Country Review

Hill Country Revue represents neo-southern blues-rock with a harder, faster edge. Formed by Cody Dickinson from the North Mississippi Allstars, the band released their debut album, Make a Move, in May 2009. The album showed off the band’s deep-south blues roots and penchant for Southern Rock; instantly drawing comparisons to early Allman Brothers. Anchored by their blistering live show, Hill Country Revue quickly established a reputation as THE modern Southern Rock / Blues band for the next generation.
 
As part of the North Mississippi Allstars, Cody Dickinson has three Grammy nominated albums under his belt. He has shared the stage with artists as diverse as Kid Rock, Dave Matthews Band and Mavis Staples, and toured all over the world steadily since 1996, earning a legion of fans.
 
Kirk Smithhart was awarded The Albert King award for Best Guitarist by the Blues Foundation when he was only 19. Since then he has taken his cutting-edge blues guitar style to music lovers all over the world. He grew up in the vibrant blues scene around Jackson, Mississippi and has been turning heads in Memphis as the best new guitarist in town.
 
Daniel Robert Coburn, born and raised in Flint MI, cut his teeth playing punk rock and hardcore. He eventually went back to his roots and formed Dixie Hustler in 2001. Dixie Hustler released their album "Self Titled" on Diamond D Records produced by Aaron Julison of Kid Rock and Cody Dickinson.
 
Music runs deep in the family of David Mason. Inspired by his Aunt who is a music teacher, David began playing drums at the age of 11. By the age of 19 he was playing professionally and touring with gospel artist Olanda Draper and The Associates. Soon after, he joined the House Band at BB Kings Club in Memphis TN where he still plays from time to time. David has played for such artist as Kirk Whalum, Donnie Mcclurkin, Preston Shannon and Larry Springfield.
 No doubt that Senegalese born Doc Samba represents the future of a whole West African generation of musicians. Born into a family of musicians, he started learning music from a young age and picked up the bass guitar at the age of 14. His talent was quickly noticed and soon he was playing and recording with both national and international artists such as Jerry Gordon, The Marcus Johnson Project, Raheem Devaughn and many more.
