Chatham County Line


Press Play to Listen
“This music isn't a product of its era, but nor is it married to a bygone one. It's essentially timeless…” - Joe Tangari, Pitchfork Media
“Not many bands bring together bluegrass' past and present the way Chatham County Line do, and fewer still can do it this well.” –All Music Guide
“…accomplished and entirely delightful…their most sustained and consistently compelling record yet.” –Popmatters

	January 23, 2011 So I thought I would post on here since not a lot is happening as of late. We're answering the phone a lot and pencil-ing in a lot of dates on the calendar. We're finalizing the tracks and mastering the live record that you'll see later this year. We're trying not to buy really expensive instruments. . . except maybe for a certain banjo. . . we're hibernating pretty much but will see you folks out on the road before you know it! -CCL

You can catch us Friday in Lancaster and Saturday at The Handlebar in Greenville. See you there! -CCL
