Old Crow Medicine Show (OCMS) 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. Carry Me Back was produced by Ted Hutt. "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. Secir us 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 (Ketch Secor, Critter Fuqua, Kevin Hayes, Morgan Jahnig, Gill Landy, and Chance McCoy) will be hitting the road to tour the US this summer in support of Carry Me Back. The Lumineers and Milk Carton Kids will provide support on a number of dates. OCMS is also part of the tour documentary Big Easy Express, which screened last week as 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 Zeroes 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.
