Jim Lauderdale, the prolific, two-time GRAMMY® Award-winning American music icon, released the latest single “Cackalacky” from his new bluegrass album, When Carolina Comes Homes Again, out March 27 (note new release date)!
A raucous tune co-written with North Carolina songwriter/activist Si Kahn that declares North Carolina “always means home sweet home,” “Cackalacky,” is the latest track unveiled from Lauderdale’s 33rd album, which is now available for pre-order.
Si Kahn is a national treasure. I’ve wanted to write with him for a long time, especially after talking about it for years at Merlefest and IBMA. I’m so proud and happy to have written this song of Carolina with him, and I hope this will be the first of many songs with Si.

The song, along with the album, was recorded at Echo Mountain Recording in Asheville, NC, in conjunction with Come Hear NC.
