The band is just as excited, with members saying their return kinda reminds them of the first time they rolled into town!
"I
think it was 2000 we came down the mountain like a bunch of hillbillies
in a black caddy limo we bought from a funeral home in Kingsport"
laughs band member Ketch Secor.
The guys say they needed some time to remember what made being on stage exciting.
"We took that time and realized it was the kinship and brother hood of being in a band" says Ketch.
That brotherhood is exactly what brought back one of the groups founding members.
"Taking
this time off and coming back. It's so much fun. This album is so much
fun to play on stage live" says returning member Critter Fequa.
The
band made some appearances here and there, but with this album comes
the full comeback. 12 tracks with favorites like "Bootleggers Boy"
"It's a moonshine tune about making whiskey and bringing it to the city" says Secor.
Another
favorite is a song called "Levi", a song written about a fallen solider
who had their old song "Wagon Wheel" played at his funeral.
"Hearing
that and knowing we had a positive effect on someone like Levi, I
thought let's write a song for Levi, but not just for him but all the
soldiers that give of themselves and some don't come back" says Ketch
Six guys made up of members old and new, with the sound they've had since coming to Nashville a decade ago.
"We
always may be part of that rabble rousing black sheep, the way we play
our old time music. That is alright, they appreciate that. Someone has
to raise a little hell at the family reunion" laughs Ketch.
You
can see Old Crow Medicine Show LIVE at the Fontanel July 28th. Joining
them will be another reunion group. The original line up of BR5-49 will
also play that night.
Old Crow Medicine Show's new album Carry Me Back is available now!

Pharmacist admits misbranding dialysis drugs
May 21, 2013 21:08 GMT
WICHITA, Kan. (AP) -- A Tennessee pharmacist has admitted distributing a misbranded Chinese-made drug that was given to kidney dialysis patients in Kansas.
The U.S. Attorney's office says 53-year-old Robert Harshbarger Jr., of Kingsport, Tenn., pleaded guilty Tuesday in Topeka to one count each of distributing a misbranded drug and health care fraud.
Harshbarger admitted that from 2004 to 2009, he substituted a cheaper Chinese import for an iron sucrose drug approved by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration.
The drugs were given to patients of Kansas Dialysis Services. Prosecutors say there were no reports of harm, but patients were put at risk because the FDA could not assure the drugs' effectiveness and safety.
Harshbarger's plea deal calls for four years in prison, restitution of nearly $849,000 and a forfeiture of $425,000.
