For nearly a decade, Muscadine Bloodline have delivered a soulful and potent form of country music indelibly colored by their Alabama heritage. But in the making of their latest body of work, the Mobile-bred duo dug deeper into their roots than ever before, dreaming up a batch of songs inspired by the places they know best: the blue-collar melting pot of their coastal hometown, bustling Cajun fishing villages and desolate timberlands, the untamed and idyllic spaces where they ran wild as children.

In a thrilling evolution of past hits like the platinum-certified “Porch Swing Angel,” vocalist Charlie Muncaster and vocalist/guitarist Gary Stanton merge that storytelling with a hard-hitting sound that alchemizes Alabama’s musical traditions into a sonic dialect all their own.

Equal parts livedin history and elaborate mythology, The Coastal Plain ultimately marks Muscadine Bloodline’s most daringly singular work to date.
