Just one year into the band's existence, the Hill Country Revue is racking up an impressive list of accomplishments. Formed by Cody Dickinson of the North Mississippi Allstars after brother and bandmate Luther Dickinson was hired for the lead-guitar chair in The Black Crowes, the band's "You Can Make It" -- first single from debut album Make a Move -- was featured last week as the free Discovery Download on the iTunes Music Store. In addition, the Revue's summer tour will include a couple of dates opening for Dave Matthews Band at Noblesville, Ind. (the old Deer Creek venue).
Hill Country Revue had to cancel an appearance in July with rappers Eightball & MJG at the Hi-Tone, but you can catch the band in a special "acoustic jamboree" performance at 8 p.m. Saturday, Aug. 22, at Otherlands in Midtown. In the meantime, check out the video for "You Can Make It" on the band's YouTube channel.
