Alabama’s Staying Power

With 58 million in worldwide sales, Alabama is the longest-lasting hit-maker on the country music scene. The ninth biggest selling group of all time, Alabama has outsold rock legends such as Led Zeppelin, The Doors, Queen, Pink Floyd and The Who.

The numbers say it all: 19 million albums sold worldwide, 12 American Music Awards earned in the Favorite Country Group category and 32 Billboard No. 1 hits. Alabama has sold more concert tickets than any country band in history and has racked up more than 200 major music industry awards. Only the legendary Conway Twitty has more No. 1 records.

True to their down-home values, Alabama takes their role-model status to heart. Their music is well known for recurring themes of fidelity, commitment and enduring love. Drinking, cheating and sinning are noticeably absent, even furthering the group’s appeal as gentile rockers.

ALABAMA PRE-SHOW DINNER

On Friday, June 25 at 8PM Alabama will make a tour stop in Austin to say goodbye after 24 long years of country hits. The Frank Erwin Center would like to help you bid these country legends farewell in style by inviting you and your friends to an exclusive VIP dinner before the concert.
