It was September of 2017 the last time Chatham County Line graced The Sanctuary stage. A lot has changed since then. Join us for a full-circle reunion with CCL.
The annual CCL Electric Holiday Tour has always been an excuse for the formerly acoustic stalwarts to let their hair down and play a little rock’n’roll along with the acoustic music that has made them famous across the globe. For over a decade now the boys from CCL have taken their setlist and enlivened it with some choice AM radio gold in honor of the passing of another year. Now that they normally perform with drums and electric & pedal steel guitars, the Holiday Tour takes on a new significance as an expanded “Modern CCL” lineup. With a little help from Jay Brown (Bass) and recording artist in his own right Johnny Irion (Guitar, Piano, Vocals) they will take to stages across NC and VA and throw one heck of a party with songs from the CCL canon and some great covers to have a little fun.

For those of you who don’t know, Chatham County Line has been gracing the stages of the world for two decades now presenting their own brand of acoustic/bluegrass/folk music. Through 8 albums of original songs, the boys have merged their love of classic bluegrass with the modern influences that they continue to grow up with. With 2018’s retiring of their beloved banjo player Chandler Holt (who has since become an in-demand talent agent), the band presented a new sound on 2020’s Strange Fascination, leaning heavier into their Americana Folk/Rock/Blues roots with 9 beautiful tales graced by soaring mandolin, heady fingerpicking, and gritty pedal steel. They now tour regularly with a drummer and Dave brings along a Stratocaster to match Greg’s vintage Emmons Pedal Steel. We’ll see you at the show!
