Serving as an advisor, historical consultant, and featured speaker in Ken Burns’ acclaimed 2019 documentary Country Music, Ketch was a bridge between generations of country music makers and lovers, as he pushed for a wider lens and deeper understanding of the art form’s roots. “Ketch is a library, but he has this carnival-barker showman thing,” says Dave Rawlings. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/641f47fc2b87d623cd1e3f69/9eb1d727-7da0-48b7-bbe3-cebfc5b945fe/0U3A2655.jpg About Ketch is best known as the founder and frontman of Old Crow Medicine Show, a two-time Grammy Award-winning juggernaut whose triumphs include induction into the Grand Ole Opry, double-platinum certification, and world-wide touring. It is impossible to overstate the influence of Old Crow, whose literary songwriting, true-to-life roadside adventures, and high-octane live performances helped spur artistic shifts in country, Americana, folk, pop, and rock music spheres since the band’s formation in 1998. “Old Crow Medicine Show were the band that made me fall in love with country music,” says Marcus Mumford. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/641f47fc2b87d623cd1e3f69/adcfc28d-0c3b-497f-ac10-5451dc20bc29/DSCF8344.jpg About A prolific writer, wordsmith and storyteller, Ketch’s most familiar creation is “Wagon Wheel,” originally recorded by Old Crow Medicine and later by Darius Rucker. Co-written with Bob Dylan, “Wagon Wheel” is one of the top five best-selling country songs of all time. But his mastery of language doesn’t stop with song. From children’s books to musical theatre productions and from TEDx talks to New York Times’ opinion pieces, Ketch’s words take on many forms. “Ketch Secor is one of my favorite writers. Whether it’s songs, books, essays, radio scripts or letters to home, Ketch has a way of making the world spin a little smoother when he starts putting words together. His words never fail to enlighten and they always have the power to make me smile,” says Marty Stuart. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/641f47fc2b87d623cd1e3f69/1761838836414-4YVSQN63P2JZ54SL3IUI/BILLBOARD+2.png About -

Each of the 30 episodes was written and hosted by Ketch Secor with bandmates collaborating both behind-the-scenes and on camera. Throughout the series Secor masterfully weaves together zany storytelling, joyful nostalgia, and heartwarming tributes - all while cleverly addressing the difficult realities of the moment. Regular segments included “All My Tales Are Tall” monologues (which run the emotional gamut from roll-on-the-floor funny to piercingly thought-provoking); hilarious green-screen skits; authentic letters from viewers (“Pan American Mailbag”); the fiddle-driven “Socially Distanced Square Dance;” and, of course, lots of music from both Old Crow Medicine Show and an impressive list of twenty-nine special guests. During a time when isolation and loneliness were prevalent themes, Hartland Hootenanny provided much needed optimism, levity and sense of connectivity. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/641f47fc2b87d623cd1e3f69/9b5a9786-a408-48de-aa4c-9f044594eda6/Ketch-Secor-Event.jpg View All Projects - Public Speaking Insert blurb here. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/641f47fc2b87d623cd1e3f69/725f9438-2f94-4d2c-87b1-3937835a21b7/PaperTexture-002.jpg View All Projects https://www.ketchsecor.com/press daily 0.75 2025-05-14 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/641f47fc2b87d623cd1e3f69/725f9438-2f94-4d2c-87b1-3937835a21b7/PaperTexture-002.jpg Press https://www.ketchsecor.com/book-ketch daily 0.75 2025-09-05 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/641f47fc2b87d623cd1e3f69/1752186539869-XN54TJ4CNL1TK1BM0Z88/41123-literacy-alliance-dinner-2023_52829117342_o.jpg Book Ketch - Make it stand out Whatever it is, the way you tell your story online can make all the difference. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/641f47fc2b87d623cd1e3f69/1752186537052-CXJ4QWJZHV77ANXC582P/IMG_7335.jpg Book Ketch - Make it stand out Whatever it is, the way you tell your story online can make all the difference. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/641f47fc2b87d623cd1e3f69/725f9438-2f94-4d2c-87b1-3937835a21b7/PaperTexture-002.jpg Book Ketch
