As we land in 2020,
Chatham County Line celebrate being a staple of the North Carolina music scene
for two decades. Embracing an all acoustic instrumentation and the modern
songwriting of leader Dave Wilson, the band has graced stages all across the
U.S. as well as Europe, Scandinavia, Ireland and the United Kingdom. With seven
studio albums of original material to pull from, CCL has a sound all their own
and a stage show to match. Songwriter, guitarist and vocalist Dave Wilson pulls
tunes out of an ether that is inspired by a shelf bending collection of vinyl
records from the 1920's to the 2020's. One listen to their all covers release
'Sharing the Covers' will give you an idea of those inspirations, with songs
from the likes of Wilco and Beck shared with those of John Lennon, Tom Petty and
John Hartford.
With the upcoming 2020 release on Yep Roc Records of 'Strange Fascination', the
band decided to push their sound a little bit more into the modern world and
embrace the use of drums both in studio and onstage. "We've had drums on
several albums, most notably Wildwood, and our audience always responded well to
those tunes" says Dave Wilson. John Teer who rotates from Mandolin to Fiddle
all while singing soaring harmony adds "We've done an Electric Holiday Tour
for the past 12 years that features an expanded group of musicians on the stage
so we're no stranger to a backbeat." With 20 years behind and clear skies
ahead, look out for Dave Wilson, John Teer, and Greg Readling as well as a
rotating cadre of drummers to keep travelling the highways, byways and airways
to share their special canon of songs with the world. Catch them at The Met as
they come through the UK.
 Chuck Prophet and The Mission Express Chuck Prophet - singer, songwriter, guitarist and producer extraordinaire returns with his band The Mission Express for the first time in three years. Chuck will be touring in support of his 14th studio album, ‘The Land That Time Forgot’. Chuck started his wild ride as a kid back in 1984 when Green on Red plucked him out of Berkeley, CA and threw him in the van for an eight year ride and the recording of as many albums. Green on Red were seminal purveyors of American Roots-Rock and broke up in 1992 just before an entire movement followed in their wake, call it alt-country or Americana, alongside the Long Ryders they were the first. Since then Chuck has recorded thirteen amazing solo albums and toured and recorded with Lucinda Williams, Aimee Mann, Cake and Jonathan Richman. In addition to that Bruce Springsteen, Ryan Adams, Solomon Burke, Alejandro Escovedo and Heart have recorded his songs, along with a host of others. Expect to hear some of the best guitar work you have ever heard in the tradition of such players as Keith Richards while Prophet vocal styles have been compared to Dylan and Tom Petty. Chuck’s never been one to rest on his laurels and ride it out and his last five records have been his best yet. Chuck’s live shows are second to none and he has played sold out gigs all across the UK. |

Country soul outfit, The Delines, return to
The Met as part of a European tour due in the UK this coming February. They bring with
them Jerry Joseph as support. The Delines sold out their last show at The Met
and followed this by winning best band, album and live act in the readers' poll
for Americana UK. They will be returning with new material and the full line up for this special
date. The band hails from Portland, Oregon where they have been working on new
material over the past few months. This began before the lockdown and is set to be
finished shortly. Look out for the new songs and older classics from their
previous albums that will feature in their set at The Met. Jerry Joseph has just recorded
his new album with the Drive-By Truckers featuring Jason Isbell which will be
out in August 2020 on Decor Records.
A bill that suggests the tickets for this evening will be in high demand.

Julie Matthews, Helen Watson and Chris While, acclaimed and appreciated for
their individual talents as folk, blues, rock and soul singers, found themselves

2017, after a 21 year hiatus, Daphne’s Flight re-emerged with their second
critically acclaimed studio album 'Knows Time, Knows Change'. Their third studio
album, 'On Arrival', is their most ambitious to date. Combining five
