Praise for the Carolina Chocolate Drops

Praise for the Carolina Chocolate Drops: "The Carolina Chocolate Drops may be reclaiming the black string-band tradition, but more importantly they're just making great music." Newsweek

"Carolina Chocolate Drops are three young black musicians revisiting, with a joyful vengeance, black string-band and jug-band music of the Twenties and Thirties…Dona Got a Ramblin' Mind is dazzling in its velocity and virtuosity." Rolling Stone

"With one finger on the pulse of history and the others plucking a 4-string banjo…acutely aware of the tradition [they're] inheriting." Paste
"An exquisite African-American old timey string band recently featured on A Prairie Home Companion." Chicago Tribune

"Downright infectious with their down-home mix of jazz, blues, and gospel rooted in bygone eras" Boston Globe

"What is conventionally thought of as a white form of traditional music is played with heart and soul by the North Carolina-based band, a reminder that no one had a corner on it." Relix

"The Carolina Chocolate Drops are on the scene, and they represent the hope for rebirth and continuation of a vibrant, exciting genre…every note exudes excitement and vitality." Dirty Linen

"We have no earthly idea where all these nouveau string bands have come from…Unfortunately this new breed can be dull as dirt, sounding like 1970's yacht-rock with a banjo player. The Drops are an exception." TIMEOUT Chicago

"The passionate joy with which these musicians have embraced this music and its heritage is palpable and inspiring; more than "revivalists," they approach their art in a spirit of in-the-moment celebration, making it accessible to everyday listeners as well as folklorists and aficionados." Living Blues
