Chatham Rabbits

A special show from a beloved duo.  

As one of North Carolina’s most beloved roots music outfits, Chatham Rabbits has swiftly

emerged from the fertile Americana scene in the Triangle. The husband-and-wife duo of Sarah

and Austin McCombie favors rustic, minimalist acoustic arrangements—mainly

clawhammer-style banjo and guitar that showcase deftness and maturity with their songwriting.

The duo has a way of connecting with their audiences that is warm and universal. Chatham

Rabbits’ first album All I Want From You (2019) was recorded with the help of Watchhouse’s

Andrew Marlin, and their sophomore album, The Yoke is Easy, The Burden is Full, released May

1, 2020. Their song “Oxen” was named one of the “Top Folk Songs of 2020" by Paste Magazine

and the band has been covered by Garden & Gun Magazine, American Songwriter, and No

Depression. Their ingenuity during the Covid-19 crisis led to the building of their own venue,

The Burrow, and the creation of their mobile concert experience, The Stay at Home Tour which

took Chatham Rabbits to 194 neighborhoods in 2020-21. The duo is currently filming a new

television show for PBS NC, On the Road with Chatham Rabbits for PBS NC that will premiere

in Spring 2022.
