Once upon a time, country music was about raising hell, defying the law, hardcore drinkin’, making pacts with the devil, and enjoying every minute of it. Well, Deke Dickerson remembers those times, and he’s bringing his Whippersnappers to San Jose to inject some life into the genre. With their mix of outlaw country, honky tonk, rockabilly and hillbilly swing, Deke Dickerson & the Whippersnappers are the real deal and will make any dancefloor erupt in a barn brawlin’ good time. Those of little faith should check out their 2023 release, Honky Tonkin’ Rhythm, their first since the lockdowns and boy howdy, it’s smokin’ hot.
