OCMS’s PJ George and modern folk icon Jesse Welles add playful harmonies. Other marquee-named guests pop in throughout—the solemn, beautiful bluegrass of “My Side of the Mountain” was crafted with Molly Tuttle and country star Luke Combs, and features Tuttle, Del and Ronnie McCoury on vocals. It’ll be a showstopper live.  On “Yall All Come,” featuring John Carter and Ana Christina Cash, OCMS wade into lyrical territory that brushes past the real oppression and fear many Americans currently experience. “If you’d kindly unite with y’all’s next door neighbor, ‘cause y’all work the same check\/ Y’all drink the same beer, y’all love the same mama,” Secor sings. It’s a sentiment we should all try to embrace, even during these divisive times.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cmeta charset=\"utf-8\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003e\u003cem\u003eJustin Jacobs -\u003c\/em\u003e \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/relix.com\/reviews\/detail\/old-crow-medicine-show-union-made\"\u003eRelix.com\u003c\/a\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv data-bt-autogen=\"\"\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eTracklist\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e1. Howdy Do America (Featuring Jesse Welles)\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e2. Lincoln Highway (Featuring Ray Benson)\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e3. My Side of the Mountain (Featuring Del McCoury ; Molly Tuttle)\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e4. Revolution Now (Featuring Evan Felker)\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e5. Last American Waltz (Featuring Molly Tuttle)\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e6. Merrimack ; Monitor\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e7. Rainbow Stew\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e8. Rye Whiskey\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e9. Beautiful Land (Featuring Maggie Rose)\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e10. Lewis and Clark\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e11. Y'all All Come (Featuring John Carter Cash ; Ana Cristina Cash)\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e12. For What It's Worth\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eUPC:\u003c\/strong\u003e 840381616380\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eLabel:\u003c\/strong\u003e Hartland Records\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eRelease Date:\u003c\/strong\u003e 6.5.26\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eFormat:\u003c\/strong\u003e CD\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"relix.shop","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":49990955139314,"sku":"157613471","price":14.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0830\/7018\/9810\/files\/packshot-old-crow-medicine-show-union-made-cd-relix.jpg?v=1787919322","url":"https:\/\/discandvinyl.com\/products\/old-crow-medicine-show-union-made-cd-2","provider":"DiscandVinyl.com","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
