charlie daniels band

Let's say you're the Devil, and you're a few souls shy of making your quota when you decide to check out backwoods Georgia and challenge a young fiddle ace named Johnny, betting him a fiddle of gold against his soul. For Satan--as the song lyrics demonstrate--it was a terrible career move...

To say Charlie Daniels is a Bob Dylan fan is to say the famous country singer plays an OK fiddle. It's an understatement. Daniels was in Dylan's band to record three albums in the late '60s and early '70s, and has since appreciated his music, even if he didn't necessarily always know what the folk-rocker was talking about.

Charlie Daniels, award-winning, platinum selling music icon, is proud to announce the release of rare 1979 live recordings from the fifth year of the momentous Volunteer Jam. What a great Christmas gift for the CDB lover in your house.

Charlie Daniels said he was ready to rock after his pacemaker implant, and he meant it. The country music icon announced the lineup for the annual Charlie Daniels Band & Friends Christmas 4 Kids benefit concert, and in addition to the Charlie Daniels Band, it includes Justin Moore and other favorite acts.

The last hour of voting during the finals of March Bandness was frenzied, to say the least. Thousands of fans of Alabama and the Charlie Daniels Band cast a ballot in the waning minutes. The boys from Fort Payne, Ala. were trailing until the end, when they surged ahead and took the title of Best Country Band of All Time.

Taste of Country's March Bandness competition is down to the final four. Zac Brown Band, Charlie Daniels Band, Alabama and Diamond Rio remain -- only one of these bands will be declared as the greatest country band of all time. It's up to fans and ToC readers to decide who will move on to next week's finals in this bracket style competition.

You know Charlie Daniels is going to play this during Cheyenne Frontier Days this summer. Which version do you think he will do, the "...son of a gun" version....or the other one?

Despite the concert starting 45 minutes late due to the rain/hail storm, listeners got quite the performance out of The Charlie Daniels Band. The stands were still full and people even faced the mud in the party zone (hopefully they weren’t wearing new shoes!). The JaneDear Girls started the show and played a multitude of different songs, including “Footloose” and “Country Girl”. They ended the opening act with their single, “Wildflower.” The crowd seemed to enjoy the girls and gave them a lot of support when they were done.
