Cory Chisel and the Wandering Sons Release Old Believers Now
Old Believers, the new album by Cory Chisel And The Wandering Sons, will be released today on Readymade Records and distributed by Thirty Tigers. The album was produced by Brendan Benson and recorded at Welcome to 1979 in Nashville, Tennessee. Chisel will be on tour throughout the summer including support slots for GRAMMY winning multi-platinum artist Norah Jones and gothic Americana band Murder By Death.

The album was recorded with a cast of Nashville players including multi-instrumentalists The Howling Brothers, Cardinals members Brad Pemberton and Jon Graboff and Chisel's long time collaborator Adriel Denae. Old Believers marks one of the many collaborations between Chisel and Benson. The two artists share an incredibly close friendship musically and personally.
Old Believers is the follow up to Chisel's critically acclaimed 2009 major label debut Death Won't Send A Letter. On the heels of Death, Chisel toured the world extensively including stops at Glastonbury, Bonnaroo, Carnegie Hall and Newport Folk Festival. He was named one of Rolling Stone's "Best New Artists" of 2009 and found radio success with the single "Born Again," a song he co-penned with Benson.
Cory Chisel And The Wandering Sons will be out on tour throughout the fall in support of the new album including an extensive tour with Alt-Country rock band Murder By Death and a thorough run of the Western United States with Norah Jones. Chisel will perform at festivals and record release shows to be announced in the coming weeks. They are also slated to appear on Late Night with David Letterman on July 10th.

Tommy Bolin never liked to change the strings on his guitars and kept them on for a long time instead because he prefered old strings more than new ones.
