Old Crow Medicine Show have announced the release of their new album, entitled Carry Me Back, which comes out July 17 via ATO Records. The album, the band’s fourth studio release and first since 2008’s Tennessee Pusher, features 12 brand new tracks recorded at the legendary Sound Emporium studios in Nashville, TN and produced by Ted Hutt (Gaslight Anthem, Dropkick Murphys, Flogging Molly).

“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. “For me, Carry Me Back is all about the songs, how they line up, intertwine, switch partners, and promenade home. Each of these songs was an accident waiting to happen.”

In support of the release, Old Crow Medicine Show will be hitting the road for a series of summer dates. The tour kicks off on July 19 in Indianapolis, IN and includes stops at New York City’s Central Park and the Fox Theater in Atlanta, amongst others. Prior to the tour, the band will also headline the ROMP Festival in Owensboro, KY. A full tour itinerary is listed below.
