Chatham County Line:
Hailed by All Music as âone of Americaâs best acoustic groups,â Chatham County Line will release their seventh studio album, Autumn, September 2nd, on Yep Roc Records. Boasting 11 original songs, the album was produced by Wilson and recorded in two sessions at Fidelitorium Recordings in Kernersville, NC, over the falls of 2014 and 2015. The finishing touches were done at Overdub Lane in Durham, NC. The album is now available for pre-order, with an instant download of âYou Are My Light,â which is featured on all streaming services.  Listen to âYou Are My Lightâ here.
Based on looks alone, Chatham County Line conjures a sepia-toned timelessness by huddling around a single microphone on stage, playing traditional string band instrumentation while clad in suits and ties. But for nearly two decades, the Raleigh, NC-based outfit has consistently crafted top-notch, original modern acoustic music that draws upon American roots forefathers like bluegrass inventor Bill Monroe and folk innovator John Hartford while acknowledging its own membersâ backgrounds in rock ânâ roll band
Characterized by poignant songwriting and inventive arrangements, Chatham County Lineâs latest album, Autumn, sees the quartet working comfortably in its sweet spot: Built around songwriter/guitarist Dave Wilsonâs clever lines and compelling vignettes, the record is a treasure trove of the wistful balladry and dynamic toe-tappers thatâve become the band hallmarks. John Teer (mandolin/fiddle), Chandler Holt (banjo), and Greg Readling (bass) add stellar three- and four- harmonies for vocal highlights, while their impeccable yet unconventional pickingârooted in bluegrass but informed by a wealth of other influencesâimpresses without overshadowing Wilsonâs rich storytelling.
