Make plans to join us in the record shop on Tuesday, December 2nd for a special instore performance & album signing by Old Crow Medicine Show, as we celebrate the band’s new Christmas album, OCMS XMAS! All who preorder the album from Grimey’s will receive a wristband for the band’s signing. Wristbands are required to participate in the signing and they also guarantee entrance to the shop, so get one while supplies last! You can read more about our upcoming event on our page here.

"We're in the joy business," says frontman Ketch Secor, who launched the Grammy-winning band in 1998. "From the very start, a lot of the virtues of Christmas - the revelry, the singalongs, the happiness - have been present in our show."

Nowhere is that more apparent than OCMS XMAS, the group's first holiday album. Decorated with seasonal spirit and string-band stomp, it's the rare breed of Christmas record that packs a punch all year long, shining new light on the band's chart-topping version of American roots music. Old Crow Medicine Show aren't just reinterpreting their favorite yuletide standards; they're adding new songs to the canon, too, from "Jolly Man" - a country-blues number inspired by Mississippi John Hurt and laced with harmonica, sleigh bells, and resonator guitar - to the Zydeco-flavored "All About A Baby." A real legacy, indeed. Old Crow have thrived for more than a quarter century. Like many of their heroes, they've become torchbearers of classic folk music, reshaping those sounds for the modern world. They're creators, not replicators, and OCMS XMAS finds them tackling another tradition - the time-honored Christmas album - with humor, hillbilly twang, and novel ideas. Supported by the band's first-ever "Holiday Hootenanny" tour, OCMS XMAS just might be the start of a new tradition itself: a celebration of the seasonal sounds, shared joy, and holiday rituals that bring us all together. Christmas just got a new soundtrack.

Due out 11/21/25, OCMS XMAS is available to preorder here on limited edition green colored vinyl, available exclusively at indie record shops, and on CD. All who preorder the album for local, store pickup will receive a wristband with their preorder for our 12/2 event with Old Crow Medicine Show. Preorders are limited to total of FOUR TOTAL per customer / household. For each album preordered, you’ll receive a wristband such that two LPs preordered = two wristbands, one CD preordered = one wristband, etc. All who place preorders in advance will receive an email with preorder pickup and event details on or by the day before our event.

After the performance portion of our event, OCMS will sign albums for wristbanded attendees. Wristbands are required for the signing for all 13+ and guarantee entrance to our event. (Wristbands are not required for kids 12 & under attending with a wristband-holding adult.)

Preorders placed for local, event pickup will be available starting at 11:00 AM on Tuesday, December 2nd, the day of our event with Old Crow Medicine Show.

Event preorders for store pickup will be held for three months after the event date. Please pick up your copy of OCMS XMAS no later than March 2nd.
