Support 88Nine And This Artist:
Along with
Let's Active, the dB's defined the Southern
power pop/
jangle pop movement of the early to mid-'80s. The band's music was a quirky blend of smart pop and
psychedelia crossed with the more experimental side of
new wave. Though they never received widespread recognition outside of critical acclaim, they provided a key link between
Big Star and '80s alternative guitar acts such as
R.E.M. Formed in 1978 in Winston-Salem, NC, the original lineup of the band featured
Chris Stamey (guitar, vocals, keyboards), Gene Holder (bass), and Will Rigby (drums).
