Carolina Chocolate Drops: In Studio

Soundcheck | Mar 1, 2012

The Carolina Chocolate Drops presented a reinvented vision of old-time Americana on their 2010 Grammy-winning release "Genuine Negro Jig." The new follow up album from the Durham-based string band is called “Leaving Eden” – and features original compositions, covers, traditionals and some beatboxing too. The band joins us in studio for a live performance.
