Great Reprise

The year was 1998 in Raleigh, NC. In a large Victorian style house on Boylan Ave, Greg Readling, Dave Wilson, Jay Brown, Colby Berry, & Craig Emmons spent their nights sharing a mutual admiration for their musical heroes. In the following years, Greg & Jay went on to join Tift Merritt's band, Dave started Chatham County Line with John Teer & Chandler Holt, and Colby & Craig left Raleigh in the pursuit of fortune. In 2005, Dave, Greg, Jay, & drummer Zeke Hutchins took a break from touring with Tift and recorded what would be the first Stillhouse record Through The Winter. With the busy schedules of Chatham County Line [which now included Greg on Standup Bass] & Tift Merritt, the band had little time for more than a sporadic live show through the years. Fast forward to 2011 and the gentlemen finally got a break from the road and had a chance to regroup. They packed up their gear and headed to Konnarock, VA where a good friend owns the former town General Store. Over the course of 7 days, they got a chance to rekindle the music that brought them together so many years before. The result of this respite is the album The Great Reprise. The album features 10 songs captured live in the warm confines of the Konnarock Store. The Great Reprise is available on vinyl through CD Baby and each vinyl comes bundled with a CD of the full album.
