In House #1633: Chatham County Line's Speed of the Whippoorwill; New Kevn Kinney, Scott H. Biram

North Carolina-based Chatham County Line returned this week with their third full-length in just the last four years, entitled Speed of the Whippoorwill. The release features 14 brand new originals from the quartet, despite being just one year removed from their last, Route 23. The band again walks the fine line between the old and the new, bringing an indie band's approach to an old-time form. The differences are subtle, but they succeed in rustling up the beards of a genre that can be a bit stuffy at times without coming off as a novelty act. The band keeps it at home once again this go around, released by North Carolina's yep roc label.
