Renowned bluegrass ensemble, Full Cord, is thrilled to announce the release of their third single, “Reelin' In The Years” (https://sc.lnk.to/bIHJ92), extracted from their forthcoming album "Cambium" (https://sc.lnk.to/TT9CGT). Full Cord, celebrated recipients of the 2022 IBMA Momentum Band Award and victors of the 2022 Telluride Bluegrass Festival Band Competition, continue to ride the wave of success and musical innovation, thrilling fans and critics alike with their impeccable musicianship and inventive arrangements.
Stephen Mougin, the esteemed producer behind “Cambium,” recounts his initial exposure to the band’s rendition of “Reelin’ In The Years”: “I heard Full Cord perform “Reelin’ In The Years” a couple of times and it knocked me out. They have a firm grasp of the bluegrassy version, but also fully commit to the funky rhythm of the original Steely Dan recording. When we started planning for the album, I insisted that this be part of the full project. They dug even deeper in the studio and I’m really proud of the way this turned out!”
In “Reelin' In The Years,” the talented lineup featuring Brian Oberlin (Vocal/Mandolin), Eric Langejans (Harmony Vocal/Guitar), Grant Flick (Fiddle), Todd Kirchner (Bass), Ricky Mier (Banjo), and guest artist Katie Kirchner (Guest Harmony Vocal) meticulously weave elements of traditional bluegrass with the distinctive funk rhythms iconic to the original Steely Dan recording. The result is a fresh and invigorating take on a classic, showcasing Full Cord's ability to dance across genre boundaries with finesse and a profound respect for musical roots.
