Old Crow Medicine Show Wins Grammy & New Video To Premiere Next Week

Celebrated roots string band Old Crow Medicine Show won the GRAMMY for BEST FOLK ALBUM for their highly praised album Remedy (ATO Records).  Though the band was previously awarded the BEST LONG FORM VIDEO GRAMMY for the 2013 film The Big Easy Express, this marks the first time Old Crow Medicine Show has won a GRAMMY for one of their albums.  The band also delivered a fiery performance of “8 Dogs 8 Banjos” during the Grammy Pre-Tel Show, which Rolling Stone listed as one of the highlights of the show, followed by this post GRAMMY profile on the band’s triumphant evening.  Remedy marked the highest Billboard debut in the band’s 18 year career and was praised by the press with coverage that included NPR Music, NPR Morning Edition, Garden & Gun, Wall Street Journal, USA Today, Huffington Post, Associated Press and many more.  Old Crow Medicine Show also performed on CONAN, headlined their biggest tour ever and most recently was the subject of an extensive profile on CBS This Morning.  [Click HERE to view.]

Old Crow Medicine Show recently shot a video for one of their most popular new songs, “Brushy Mountain Conjugal Trailer”, at Nashville’s famed Tennessee State Penitentiary, which was also the location for the acclaimed Tom Hanks film, The Green Mile. CMT will debut the video via a 48 Hour Exclusive Premiere on the CMT Hot 20 Countdown, CMT, and CMT.com on February 21st and 22nd.

In advance of the new video, The Brushy Mountain Conjugal Trailer EP will be released digitally via ATO Records on February 17th.  The EP, which will be available at all major digital retailers, includes two tracks which were previously unavailable to fans – “Mother Church”, written in honor of Nashville’s historic Ryman Auditorium and former long time home to the Grand Ole Opry, and a live version of “The Warden”.  A physical version of the EP will be available this spring.

With fans ranging from hipsters to college students to music purists young and old, Old Crow Medicine Show have remained an unwavering force in roots music.  Now being recognized as the torch-bearers of traditional old-time string music, or Country Music as they like to refer to it, they proudly and successfully are doing their part to celebrate the integrity of the genre in the modern era.

Old Crow Medicine Show is currently taking a short break from touring, but has announced a handful of exciting 2015 appearances including Shaky Knees and the inaugural Shaky Boots Festival, Delfest, The Peach Music Festival and a return to the legendary Red Rocks Amphitheatre in the Summer.  For more information on where you can find Old Crow Medicine Show performing, please visit: http://www.crowmedicine.com/tour.
