Big Smo is a busy man these days with a new record, tour, his own television reality show, and now he's a business owner! But he isn't too busy to play in T-Town tonight!

Rhythm & Brews is the place to be tonight to see local favorites Desperate Measures warm up the stage for country rapper Big Smo! Show starts at 8:30 and tickets are just $15 at the door. This is a 19+ show.

Called "Hick Ross," by his Kinfoke, Smo has racked up over 16 million views on YouTube and sold over 150,000 digital tracks. The breakthrough was "Kickin' It In Tennessee," a song and video celebration that went viral and led to his major label record deal.

To describe his style, Smo said,

We were raised on Waylon and Willie, Johnny Cash and Jerry Reed and we were raised on the Beastie Boys and Dirty South, so it’s not a surprise that’s who we’ve become.
