History

The Charlie Daniels Band welded fiddle-driven country to hard Southern rock and turned it into a crowd-pleasing, fiercely proud sound. Charlie Daniels, a North Carolina-born multi-instrumentalist, first made his mark as a Nashville session player, including work on several Bob Dylan albums around the turn of the 1970s, before leading his own group. Fire on the Mountain (1974) established the band's identity, with The South's Gonna Do It Again, a roll call of fellow Southern rock bands, and Long Haired Country Boy, a laid-back answer to those who judged the counterculture. The band ran twin guitars, dual drummers at times, boogie rhythms and long jams, and Daniels himself switched between guitar and a blistering fiddle. He also hosted the Volunteer Jam concerts, which gathered Southern rock and country players on one stage. Million Mile Reflections (1979) brought The Devil Went Down to Georgia, a breakneck fiddle duel between a boy and the devil that became their best-known song. Daniels died in 2020. Listeners recognise the band by that sawing fiddle and a storytelling growl.
