Mavis StaplesAs multiple Grammy-winners, Old Crow Medicine Show celebrates their 25th anniversary. Their new album, Jubilee, finds the band producing alongside Matt Ross-Spang (Jason Isbell, St. Paul & The Broken Bones). The record features a return cameo from OCMS co-founder Willie Watson as well as appearances from legend Mavis Staples and rising star Sierra Ferrell. The result encompasses everything from jug-band tunes to Irish folk songs to exultant gospel jams. --- Swiftly following on the heels of Paint This Town, Jubilee effectively acts as a simultaneous continuation and counterpoint to that 2022 album. Where Ketch Secor had Old Crow Medicine Show tackle politically timely concerns on Paint This Town, Jubilee focuses on universal themes, drawing on a variety of American folk traditions and singing about subjects old as time: love, loss, mending fences, and getting messed up. Purposefully ragged, the record switches between wistful ballads and careening rave-ups, occasionally lingering in the spaces separating the two. Old Crow Medicine Show hasn't left heavier social issues behind yet the emphasis is how a joyful noise is the thread that connects people of different backgrounds. To that end, Old Crow invites a number of guests into the studio, chief among them soul legend Mavis Staples, who helps give the rousing "One Drop" a spiritual lift. Sierra Ferrell stops by for "Belle Meade Cockfight," a cornpone saga that might be the silliest moment on the record but hardly the only moment of outright humor. "Wolfman of the Ozarks" and "Keel Over and Die" are whiplash bluegrass numbers, "I Want It Now" is rollicking blues boogie and they're all eclipsed by the vaudevillian shuffle "Shit Kicked In." Despite the preponderance of lighter tunes, the heart of the record lies in "Miles Away," a bittersweet reminiscence Secor co-wrote with Molly Tuttle and sings with Willie Watson, a founding Old Crow Medicine Show member who left years ago whose presence gives the song deep emotional resonance. ~ Stephen Thomas Erlewine, AllMusic Normal 0 false false false EN-US X-NONE X-NONE
