Silas Robertson stands out in a crowd. The wackiest member of the "Duck Dynasty" family. Uncle Si, as he's called, tends to walk the line between kooky, funny and downright crazy.

On June 23, Uncle Si and his new music group, The Sicotics, will bring their sound to the Civic Center of Anderson.

According to the website, Uncle Si and the Sicotics have a feel that you might find anywhere from a Nashville honky tonk to an insane asylum. Uncle Si brings the loony with rubber chickens and straitjackets while his daughter-in-law, Marsha Robertson, offers up a soulful voice full of country, rock and southern Gospel.

'Uncle Si' from 'Duck Dynasty' has his own band and they are coming through Anderson on June 23.

The writing and singing come from Bridgette Tatum, writer of Jason Aldean's No. 1 hit "She's Country." The band released its first EP, "Uncle Si and the Sicotics," on Dec. 8.

In Anderson, the group will perform songs from the self-titled album including “Throwback Man,” “The Yee-Haw Song” and “Huntin’ Somethin’.” Plus, the audience can expect the unexpected on stage. As the website says, “You never know what's gonna happen, ‘cause they don't know what's gonna happen, or who just might show up! Welcome to the show filled with Faith, Family and Fun."

Silas Robertson of 'Duck Dynasty' has started a band and its first tour will come through Anderson on June 23.

There will be plenty of pickin' along with a little hip-hop and guitar that builds an energetic experience. And with it being the first tour the group has ever been on, Uncle Si and the Sicotics will be a new experience for both audience and the group itself. 

Tickets go on sale at 10 a.m. March 23. The show will be at 7:30 p.m. June 23 with doors opening at 6:30 p.m. Tickets are $20-$25 and will be on sale through Ticketmaster and ticketmaster.com
