Series: Deep in the South

This young African American stringband out of Raleigh, North Carolina has wisdom beyond its years, having studied the tradition of Piedmont fiddle music with old time mentor Joe Thompson. A rigorous touring schedule over the last year has put the Carolina Chocolate Drops in front of audiences across the globe, pushing the recent resurgence of old-time fiddle music even further into mainstream culture.

"What is conventionally thought of as a white form of traditional music is played with heart and soul by the North Carolina based band, a reminder that no one had a corner on it." - Relix Magazine
