Joined by Molly Tuttle & Golden Highway, OCMS founding member Willie Watson and The Del McCoury Band on select dates, the band's nationwide trek includes a performance at Luck Reunion on March 14, as well as stops in Dallas, New York, Boston and much more throughout the year, wrapping up in December with a return to Nashville.

“One Drop” follows the release of “Belle Meade Cockfight” (feat. Sierra Ferrell) and the album’s debut single “Miles Away,” a sweetly reflective song co-written by Secor and bluegrass virtuoso Molly Tuttle, with guest vocals from Old Crow Medicine Show co-founder Willie Watson. Plus, check out upcoming tour dates!

Old Crow Medicine Show shares their new single “Belle Meade Cockfight” featuring singer/songwriter Sierra Ferrell. Accompanied by a campy old-school-hoedown music video directed and produced by band member Morgan Jahning, “Belle Meade Cockfight” is the latest track from the band’s new album Jubilee.

Arriving as the two-time GRAMMY award-winning band gears up to celebrate their 25th anniversary, Jubilee finds the group once again co-producing with Matt Ross-Spang (Drive-By Truckers, St. Paul & the Broken Bones) and recording at their own Hartland Studios. The album features appearances from Mavis Staples and Sierra Ferrell.

Building around solid community and great songs, siblings Sara and Sean Watkins began their Watkins Family Hour shows at L.A.'s beloved Largo nightclub two decades ago.

With their new album, Vol. II, the Watkins returned to the recording studio with a host of long-time friends and Watkins Family Hour band mates like Jon Brion, Jackson Browne, Madison Cunningham, Lucius, Gaby Moreno, Benmont Tench, and Willie Watson.
