Few modern bands have left as bold a mark on the American rock and soul landscape as Alabama Shakes. With their gritty sound, powerful vocals, and genre-defying style, the band rose from small-town roots to Grammy-winning stardom. Whether you're a lifelong fan or new to their music, there's never been a better time to celebrate their legacy—with timeless songs and exclusive Alabama Shakes merchandise that brings their sound and spirit to life.

Who Are Alabama Shakes?

Formed in Athens, Alabama in 2009, Alabama Shakes came together around a shared love of rock, soul, and Southern roots music. Led by powerhouse vocalist and guitarist Brittany Howard, the band quickly built a grassroots following through electrifying live performances and raw, emotional songwriting.

Their 2012 debut album, Boys & Girls, was a breakout success. Fueled by the hit single Hold On, it earned critical acclaim and multiple Grammy nominations. The follow-up, Sound & Color (2015), pushed their sound into new territory—blending psychedelic rock, blues, and soul into a genre-bending experience that debuted at No. 1 on the Billboard 200 and won four Grammys.

A Sound That Transcends Genre

What sets Alabama Shakes apart is their refusal to be boxed into any one genre. Their music is a fusion of Southern rock, vintage soul, blues, and even hints of funk and garage rock. Brittany Howard’s dynamic voice—capable of both raspy roars and tender falsettos—serves as the emotional anchor of each track.

Songs like Don’t Wanna Fight, Gimme All Your Love, and Future People have become modern classics, filled with grit, groove, and authenticity. Their music speaks to themes of struggle, identity, love, and liberation—resonating deeply with a diverse audience.
