Load-In Through The Back

We are so caught up in our guests on the Season 04 Finale of “Load-In Through the Back”-- we’re chatting with Don Barnes of rock royalty .38 Special!

Since forming in 1974, .38 Special has sold an astounding 30 million records worldwide on the back of massive hits such as “Caught Up In You” and “Hold On Loosely.”

The group regularly sells out arenas across the United States and Canada some 52-years since their inception, and recently released their first album of new material in over two decades entitled “Milestone.”

Don joins us from home during a rare touring lull to discuss writing your truth, having AC/DC as an opening act, becoming a band in the shadow of Lynyrd Skynyrd, record industry disenchantment, the power of a BIG chorus, and so much more.

One final THANK YOU for listening and being a part of our fourth season. We will be back soon.
