The Churchmen’s new CD, I’ll Be Long Gone, which was released this week by Pinecastle Records, reflects a new band configuration.

Band veterans Keith Clark, Freddy Rakes and Gerald Harbour are joined on the CD by new members David Guthrie and Tim Scott.

Guest performers on I’ll Be Long Gone include the CD’s producer Dale Perry on banjo and David Coffey on dobro.
