are excited to announce the release of their newest album, Carry Me Back, on July 17 through ATO
Records. Carry Me Back is the band's fourth studio album and first since 2008's Tennessee
Pusher, and features 12 brand-new tracks that sonically span the band's career while still pushing them forward
in new directions as musicians and songwriters. The album was recorded at the legendary Sound
Emporium studios in Nashville (O Brother, Where Art Thou?; REM's Document; Robert Plant and Alison
Krauss's Raising Sand). |

Carry Me Back was produced by Ted Hutt
(Gaslight Anthem, Dropkick Murphys, Flogging Molly). "Ted Hutt asked us to really dig deep as artists, as
songwriters, to get to the heart of the matter of these songs and, especially, not to settle for anything less than their
greatness," recalls Ketch Secor of the band. Secor is also very proud of the results - "For me, Carry Me
Back is all about the songs, how they line up, intertwine, switch partners, and promenade home."
OCMS is also a part of the tour documentary Big Easy Express, which screened
last week at the Nashville Film Festival. The movie documents last year's Railroad Revival Tour, which
featured OCMS on tour with Mumford & Sons and Edward Sharpe & The Magnetic Zeros
on a tour across the US, where the three bands travelled together on vintage train cars, playing rambunctiously fun
shows at stops along the way. |
Last month, Old Crow
Medicine Show filmed five guerilla videos in five hours revisiting important sites from their career. The
first, "Bootlegger's Boy," was filmed while busking on 2nd Avenue in Nashville. Next up, we have
"Ain't It Enough", filmed in the echo chamber at the historic Sound Emporium Studios in Nashville, where
the band recorded their new album Carry Me Back. The third video features "Sewanee Mountain
Catfight," filmed while busking outside of the Ryman's 5th Ave. entrance.
