Old Crow Medicine Show Return to Nettwerk for 'Remedy'

BY Gregory AdamsPublished May 13, 2014

Whether it's a surefire cure for you roots needs remains to be determined, but seasoned Americana crew Old Crow Medicine Show are set to deliver a new full-length called Remedy. The album marks their return to Nettwerk, and it's due to drop July 1.

A press release for the set, which follows the ATO-delivered Carry Me Back from 2012, notes that the band once again teamed up with producer Ted Hutt (Flogging Molly, Dropkick Murphys, Gaslight Anthem) to make the folk- and country-flavoured album, which is described as "chock full of...raw energy, swagger and drive."

"This is country music for people who think country music needs a whoopin,'' fiddler Ketch Secor said in a statement, adding, "Country music that knows how deep its roots run — from the dirtiest blues to the folkiest folk, the songwriters, the crooners and the Outlaws, to the Opry stage; it's all here." 

A mix of originals and covers fills the album, from an opening take on "classic prison tale" called "Brushy Mountain Conjugal Trailer," to original ballad "Dearly Departed Friend" and a take on Critter Fuqua's "Firewater." You can check out a banjo-pluckin' trailer for the set down below.

Old Crow Medicine Show will be taking themselves out on the road from May to October, with stops in Toronto, Montreal and Vancouver booked along the way. Stages will be shared with the likes of the Avett Brothers, Hurray for the Riff Raff, Parker Millsap, Shovels & Rope and more. You'll see the itinerary specifics below as well.
