Two-time Grammy nominees Nappy Roots will perform at Agave in Avon on Saturday with doors opening at 9:30 p.m.
Nappy Roots entered the music scene in 1998 and they have remained real, humble, talented guys with inherent, undeniable southern swagger.
After the international success of their album “Watermelon, Chicken & Grits,” selling over 3 million albums, the members of Nappy Roots were flying high while still acutely aware of how far it could be to the bottom should they fall. It is that practical and genuine presence of mind that helped them sustain touring as a group these last 10 years. Building a vastly loyal fan-base nationwide, fans and friends can be used interchangeably when referring to their army of followers.
In an economically recessed climate, Nappy Roots has joined the rest of the nation in trying to understand and work through financial and emotional struggles. No stranger to challenges, this four-man collective from Kentucky tackled their obstacles and, in the process, their self-honest work emerged in form of five studio albums and 10 mix-tapes.
As usual, Nappy Roots examine our alienable rights, reason, and truth through lyrical originality and voyage.
Tickets are $15 in advance and $18 day-of. They can be purchased at http://www.agaveavon.com.
