On the Road with Chatham Rabbits

Sarah and Austin play in their former hometown at Bynum General Store and get nostalgic with a visit to their old home place. Sarah and Austin give a tour of their Siler City farm and introduce a menagerie of adorable animals. The couple write new songs together and look forward to the band’s first practice before a Sanford concert kicks off their tour.

Sarah and Austin head with their full Chatham Rabbits band to play big crowds at Doc Watson’s beloved music festival MerleFest in Wilkesboro. Austin does some magical fly fishing for trout with friend and musician Woody Platt of Steep Canyon Rangers. Sarah starts an impromptu jam session by the river and the Chatham Rabbits get emotional as they honor a dear friend.

Farm life calls as Sarah and Austin finish up their chores with the animals before heading out on the road. Flood waters threaten to cancel a coastal concert and flood their RV as they sleep in the parking lot. Good things outweigh the bad when Chatham Rabbits shine through on stage.

The North Carolina State Fair provides Chatham Rabbits a unique venue for music making. After the concert, Sarah and Austin explore fair food and take in the sights. Sarah pays a visit to Grandmother Nancy Jo for some new concert duds and sewing tips. The band plays two iconic shows and gets to hold their youngest fan.
