The Cox Family, widely known for their GRAMMY�-winning collaboration with Alison Krauss, 'I Know Who Holds Tomorrow', as well as their ravishing performance of I Am Weary, Let Me Rest from the smash-hit soundtrack O Brother, Where Art Thou?, make a triumphant return with 'Gone Like the Cotton', an album seventeen years in the making and featuring Alison Krauss (who also produces the album), Sonny Landreth, Ron Block and Sam Bush.
'Gone Like The Cotton' is a stunning work, of which Rolling Stone's Stephen Betts writes, Like the Cox Family's previous efforts, Gone Like the Cotton is built on a solid country-music foundation with sensational harmony singing and inspired song selection... the Coxes haven't missed a beat, a tasty instrumental lick, or a sterling vocal performance in spite of the nearly two decades between the album's late 20th-century start and glorious 2015 finish.
Producer Alison Krauss reflects, I can't remember when I've been lucky enough to be witness to a story where such generosity and talent come together so perfectly. I've had the time of my life getting to work on the record again. The Cox Family hold a place in my heart like no other, and listening to them for all of us is like coming home.
