On January 5, Regina’s quartet, The Dead South, were the first to grace the Commodore Ballroom’s stage in 2023. They didn’t disappoint. The crowd was moving with the beat all night long. The crowd for the most part consisted of what could be parents and their adult children. It seemed as if to get in …
