Album Description
On CHATHAM COUNTY LINE's brand new album songwriting is paramount, yet the band's instrumental talents and gorgeous harmonies still rise to the surface. CCL's traditional instrumentation provides a fitting foil to their dedication to innovative approaches to oldtime music. On this their fourth studio album, Chatham County Line takes their rightful place among the new guard of indie-roots music and perhaps pen their masterpiece in the process.

Highly recommended
Not your standard bluegrass collection - much quirkier and better for it. Production very sharp with all instruments picked out very clearly; vocal harmonies very strong, but songs all stand up to examination. 'The Carolinian' and 'Country Boy/City Boy' both excellent.

progressive bluegrass heaven
Saw these guys at the recent Rhythm and Roots festival in Kilkenny and they brought the house down with their swoonsome harmonies and killer string picking.
Whilst sitting firmly in the bluegrass tradition CCL show in their leadoff track 'Chip of a star' that they are capable of poppy sensibilities anathema maybe to bluegrass purists but it works a treat here.
My favourite tracks are however the country soul ballad 'Sweet Eviction'and the catchy 'The Carolinian'.Unlike their previous three albums plenty of sublime steel guitar in evidence as CCL continue to expand the bluegrass horizon and along with the Avett Brothers and King Wilkie remain in the vanguard of the progressive bluegrass movement.
Highly recommended for all roots music fans.
