Before their run of festivals this summer, the Atlanta duo hadn’t played together in a decade. So, naturally, there are plenty of fans out there who have never gotten a chance to see them perform. Until now. And more than a few people felt like Friday night’s energetic set gave them the rare opportunity to cross something off of their Bucket List.

There are tons of other opportunities to see them this summer, including at Firefly Music Festival in Delaware on June 21, Forecastle Festival in Louisville, Kentucky on July 19 and a handful more.
