Muscadine Bloodline, the country music duo of Charlie Muncaster and Gary Stanton, released a new song today, “Ain’t For Sale,” featuring Josh Meloy. Of the song, the duo shared, “‘Ain’t for Sale’ is about a battle between temptation and integrity. The song portrays the struggle of a man awake at 3 am, struggling with moral choices, symbolized by the snake and the forbidden fruit. It’s a self-analyzing journey through the night, where the lyrics ask for strength to fight the devil’s temptations, while realizing the importance of his soul over materialistic things.”
The highly-lauded duo are gearing up to kick off their Spring “The Coastal Plain Tour,” which includes stops at Cincinnati’s Bogart’s, Detroit’s Saint Andrew’s Hall, Fort Worth’s Billy Bob’s and Minneapolis’ First Avenue among many others. See below for the complete tour itinerary. Full details and tickets can be found at muscadinebloodline.com.
Known for their “stunning” (Music Row) live shows, the duo spent the latter half of last year on the road as direct support for Post Malone’s F-1 Trillion Tour. This year, in addition to their headline tour, they will join fellow Alabamians The Red Clay Strays for select dates, including stops at Orange Beach’s The Wharf Amphitheatre (two nights) and Morrison’s Red Rocks Amphitheatre.
The performances celebrate the duo’s new album, The Coastal Plain, which debuted in August to widespread acclaim. Rolling Stone hailed the record as “one of the strongest country albums of 2024” and All Country News praised it as “a masterclass in modern country storytelling.” Produced by the duo alongside their long-time collaborator Ryan Youmans (known for his work with Jelly Roll, among others), the record stands as Muscadine Bloodline’s most authentic project to date. Drawing deeply from their personal histories, they craft narratives reminiscent of the people and landscapes of their southern Alabama upbringing. Across the album’s 14 tracks, the duo blends classic country, roots and gospel influences, crafting a rich tapestry of storytelling and musical heritage. Listen to The Coastal Plain HERE.
Originally from Mobile and now based in Nashville, Muncaster and Stanton have released three full-length albums including 2023’s Teenage Dixie. Of the record, American Songwriter praised, “infectiously singable tunes…a raw, unapologetic homage to where they came from,” while Holler called it “a rich, engulfing, emotionally-driven LP that captures the unmistakable truth of people and their stories.” Since forming in 2015, the duo has also achieved great success with their 2016 platinum-certified single, “Porch Swing Angel,” which has garnered over 100 million streams on Spotify to date, made their Grand Ole Opry debut, performed sold-out headline shows across the country and joined artists such Eric Church, Turnpike Troubadours and Cody Johnson on the road.
