Carry Me Back

Old Crow Medicine Show

High-octane string band music that smells of woodsmoke and red clay. A rowdy, harmonized celebration of Appalachian grit and Southern history.

A high-octane blend of celebratory rowdiness and deep, historical Southern melancholy.

Moments Worth Listening For
The frantic, breathless fiddle opening of Carry Me Back to Virginia that sets a breakneck pace immediately.
The transition into the haunting, slower-paced social reflection of We Don't Grow Tobacco.
The rowdy, percussive energy of Sewanee Mountain Catfight that feels like a barroom brawl in musical form.
