Summary:

"The Chill of Lonesome is the title of a bluegrass album by Ernie Thacker. Ernie, his family and friends are amazing bluegrass musicians. They live in Clinchco, Virginia. Back in 2006, I suggested to Mélanie Scarciglia, my partner, Chris Hoover, our Good Samaritan (and producer) and Garret Linn, movie director (two of my good friends from New York), to go visit Ernie Thacker and his band, Route 23, and make a film about bluegrass music. Our destination was the small town of Clinchco, Virginia. We drove the 14 hours from NYC to Clinchco without knowing what we would find there. I had only seen the band once, two years earlier, at the first Bourbon and Bluegrass Festival in Frankfort, Kentucky and was impressed by Ernie and his brother Matthew on bass and vocals. The material we gathered is so dense and the experience of sharing the lives of Ernie and his troupe so intense that, when back in our respective homes, it took us a while to edit our photos and all the movie footage. This book is my first attempt to reconstruct and share with the viewer/reader the rich mosaic of souvenirs we gathered during that week in deep Virginia..."-- provided by distributor.
