Such is Old Crow’s Magic

"Such is Old Crow’s magic. They make brand-new songs sound like traditionals and traditionals sound like songs you’ve never heard before. Every album has something you can’t wait to hear live, even if a new song sounds a lot like an old song. The Lumineers might land a hit with the greatest song they ever wrote as part of one nine-song release, and Mumford might have earned themselves a spot on that Grammy show thanks to two releases in six years, but Old Crow is the standard the string-band revolution should be judged by, and they aren’t nearly done making great songs. Not nearly."
