About Chatham County Line
Chatham County Line formed in Raleigh, North Carolina, in 1999, built around singer and guitarist Dave Wilson, fiddler and mandolinist John Teer, banjo player Chandler Holt and bassist Greg Readling, who also plays pedal steel. For years they performed gathered around a single microphone, stepping in and out for solos and harmonies.
Their records, mostly on Yep Roc, put original songs in front of the bluegrass lineup, with Wilson's writing drawing on rock and pop songcraft as much as on the old string-band repertoire. The band has a strong following in Norway, where it has toured and recorded with the Norwegian singer Jonas Fjeld.
