Why don't more people listen to bluegrass?

That's Chatham County Line, an amazing semi-traditional bluegrass band from Raleigh, NC. I don't have time to write at length about anything today -- if I were a sane person I'd be starting my paper about Irish revolutionary Patrick Pearse right now -- so I'll just urge you to check out their new album, IV. (Or at least download the leadoff single "Chip of a Star," which is truly beautiful and has a hook worthy of pop radio, here.)

Here's more Chatham County Line...

(That last one, "Company Blues," is probably my favorite of their songs; the album cut from Speed of the Whippoorwill is even better, since they all sing the chorus with this incredible hair-raising harmony. Go get it if you can.)

Anyway. Good luck with all the schoolwork everyone undoubtedly has, and I'll see you on the other side; this is an open thread.
