A band whose success crosses generations of country music fans will perform this month at Rodgers Theatre.

Confederate Railroad is slated to take the stage at 7 p.m. May 20.

The group first hit the national music scene in the early 90s, finding success with a unique style and sound.

The band was founded by frontman Danny Shirley and has seen hits like “She Took It Like A Man,” “Jesus and Mama,” and “Daddy Never Was the Cadillac Kind,” top the charts.

The band plays 100 or so dates each year, according to a press release from the group.

“At the end of each show, the band stays around until every fan who wants an autograph, or to pose with the group for a picture or just say ‘hello’ is taken care of,” according to the group’s managers.

The band includes Shirley, the lead singer and vocalist, Mark Dufresne on drums, Mo Thaxton on bass and vocals, Rusty Hendrix on lead guitar and Joey Recker on keyboards and vocals.
