On Tuesday, Hard Working Americans brought their tour in support of their recently issued new album Rest In Chaos to The Neighborhood Theatre in Charlotte, North Carolina. Vocalist Todd Snider, bassist Dave Schools, guitarist Neal Casal, drummer Duane Trucks, keyboardist Chad Staehly and lap steel/guitarist Jesse Aycock delivered a show that featured several songs from the new album, as well as selections from their previously issued LPs.

The night at the Neighborhood Theatre began with Snider’s “Mission Accomplished” which they included on their 2014 live LP The First Waltz followed by the Chaos tracks “Half Ass Moses,” “It Runs Together,” “Opening Statement,” “Dope is Dope” and “Throwing Goats.” Later in the main set the group offered a lengthy sequence paring “Burn Out Shoes” with a take on Sniders’ “Is This Thing Working?” Drawing the evening to a close, the three song encore featured “Massacre,” “Acid” and “Good Fortune.”
