“Chad Fisher hand picks an All Star cast of Alabama’s best musicians to recreate the music of Alabama’s own musical genius, Hank Williams. This show is so much fun. I love it all, but I especially love the lyrics, the singing, and the slide guitar. I’m reminded of how proud I am to be from Alabama. This is my favorite night of the year”. – Steve DeMedicis

Chad Fisher has become one of the most sought after musicians in the south. He cut his teeth playing the trombone in the rich soul and jazz scene of Alabama and Mississippi, performing with local and regional bands, as well as soul legends The Temptations, Four Tops, Muscle Shoals' The Swampers, and a host of others.
He is currently touring with St. Paul and The Broken Bones, including the band's recent dates opening for The Rolling Stones.
He can also be heard on acclaimed songwriter Jason Isbell's record Live in Alabama and appears on Isbell's recent performance on PBS's Live at Lincoln Center.
Fisher's own band of all-star musicians is becoming known as one the region's best. His songwriting is full of vocal melodies and harmonies inspired by the country music he heard as a boy, but combines the instrumental textures, horns, and rhythms of soul, afro-beat, and rock to create a unique and exciting music.
