Last time I photographed the Nitty Gritty Dirt Band was in 1985 when Arlo Guthrie joined them on stage in Bangor Maine. Fast forward 37 years and the band, still lead by Jeff Hanna, sound as great as ever.
Billy Bob Thornton introduced the latest line up of the band including long time drummer (and harmonica), Jimmie Fadden, Bob Carpenter on Keyboard, Jim Photoglo on bass, Ross Holmes on Fiddle and Mandolin and Jeff’s son, Jaime on Guitar. The evening was a mix of their classic songs and a handful of Dylan songs off their latest release entitled ‘Dirt Does Dylan’ which dropped back in May, 2022.
