Band of the Week:Doc Dailey & Magnolia Devil


Southern Grit Pop, Indie-Folk- call it what you like- but Doc Dailey and Magnolia Devil's music is rooted in history-rich North Alabama- Muscle Shoals to be exact. 

Their sound is akin to bluegrass with a rock edge and the lyrics are rooted in stories of home, love lost and venturing out on one's own. Doc Dailey's voice is warm and inviting and pairs nicely with the vulnerable characters he often writes about.

Not only was their 2012 album Catch the Presidents partly produced by Alabama Shakes' keyboardist Ben Tanner, but they've opened up for them while on tour as well. They were even featured in a Vice Magazine short film about the Muscle Shoals scene and innumerable famous acts that have come through the small town to record and write - ever heard of Bob Dylan, The Rolling Stones, Paul Simon, or Otis Redding? 

Check out some of their tunes below.
