Johann Greco took the stage at The Dead Beat Club in Athens, Georgia on March 7th and delivered exactly the kind of night that makes you glad you left the couch. Armed with protest songs, a few chords, and what he generously refers to  "half-truths," Greco made a strong case that three chords and a bone to pick can still move a room. 

The set leaned hard into new material, with standouts like "Machine Gun Jesus" and "Smoke 'Em If You Got 'Em" landing with the kind of impact their titles suggest and the audience received the anti-conservative, anti-evangelical songbook with genuine enthusiasm.

 Greco's songs don't ask politely. They kick the door in, say their piece, and dare you to disagree, which, judging by the energy in the room, nobody was particularly inclined to do.
