Dom Flemons – the founding member of the GRAMMY-winning Carolina Chocolate Drops who has left the band to go solo – has announced a 31-date tour, including a date at Lincoln Center and thirteen tour dates with Third Man Records’ Pokey LaFarage on the “Central Time Tour.” The new album by the American Songster ‘Prospect Hill,’ comes out July 22 on Music Maker Relief Foundation. Here’s a behind-the-scenes teaser video.

Esquire called ‘Prospect Hill’ “finger-pickin', good-old-fashioned tin-cup barn-dance fun.”

Paste said, “Flemons’ harmonica-heavy, foot-tapping folk makes for the perfect hot summer soundtrack.”

XPN The Key blog said, “Flemons adds some spunk with crisp instrumentation and upbeat syncopation… classic frontporch twang.”

CMT Edge says, “Dom Flemons satisfies” in its premiere of the East Nashville-inspired original song “Hot Chicken."
