Alabama 3 Acoustic

Thursday 27 August 2026

Heeding Woody Guthrie's maxim, Alabama 3 have never feared the reduction of their technology. Consequently, Alabama 3 acoustic is brave enough to go out on the road armed only with a battered acoustic guitar and harmonica, preaching Guthrie's word that 'this machine kills fascists'. Complete with Larry Love's whiskey-soaked vocals, Devlin Love’s soulful chorus, and Nick Reynolds bad-ass blues on harmonica, they provide a raucous show, which is in no way constrained by the boring maxim that often goes with acoustic gigs!

In homage to the classic delta blues slide players like Mississippi Fred McDowell, Howlin’ Wolf, John
Lee Hooker and their own Rockfree Base, the band present their narco-acoustic slant on Alabama 3 and
the music that has inspired them along the way. Rock Freebase: “I’ve developed a style of guitar that combines elements of both MacDowell and White, with a hint of banjo picking, and tried to give it a more modern, urban twist.”

Alabama 3 Acoustic have played all around the world in festivals, theatre’s, concert halls, and prisons.

An unrivalled Marxist machine gun, Alabama 3 Acoustic are on a mission to get you mashed.
