The Carolina Chocolate Drops are in the UK all this week to celebrate the early release there of their Nonesuch debut, Genuine Negro Jig, and perform at venues throughout the country following what the Scotland Herald called an "exhilarating" tour kick-off at Celtic Connections in Glasgow last week.

With the band now in England, it's been a whirlwind of BBC appearances, including a live BBC 6 Music interview earlier today on Nemone's early afternoon show. Listen again online at bbc.co.uk, where the band's segment begins at 1:46:47 in.

Over the weekend, Carolina Chocolate Drops performed the album track "Cornbread and Butterbeans" on BBC Radio 4's Loose Ends show Saturday. You can listen to the segment at about 31:52 at bbc.co.uk.

In the States, there are just two weeks to go before the record release and the start of the US leg of the tour. For all the tour information, visit nonesuch.com/on-tour. To pre-order the album in the US, along with seven exclusive bonus downloads upon release, visit the Nonesuch Store.
