"Best new music" - "A staple of the North Carolina music scene for two decades, Chatham County Line, introduces a new sound and line up with their ninth studio album, Strange Fascination".

"Bluegrassy Chatham County Line expand their sound into alternative country with a natural fluidity ... The rock and country influences come through, but the instrumentation, arrangement, and performances have frequently suggested a bluegrass band pushing boundaries rather than a musical act miscategorized. With Strange Fascination, though, the group make a clear step away from their original sound. Most obviously, they add drums on each track of the album a first for them. More subtly but no less distinctly, they continue their tendency toward other sorts of songwriting. It's a natural step for the band and one that, even a couple decades into their award-winning career, suits them".
