Charlie Muncaster and Gary Stanton recorded Longleaf Lo-fi in a Mississippi cabin surrounded by longleaf pines. That’s not set dressing — that’s the record’s premise. The sixth Muscadine Bloodline album is predominantly acoustic, built close to the wood, songs about place and the people you come from and the ones you married. They bring it to 713 Music Hall in Houston on Friday, August 21, and the Longleaf Lo-fi Tour finds one of its bigger stages of the run.
About Muscadine Bloodline
Muncaster and Stanton are from Mobile, Alabama, and they’ve been building this on their own terms since they formed in 2015. No major-label deal. They put out records on Stancaster Music, their own imprint, distributed through Thirty Tigers. “Porch Swing Angel” went platinum and drew a crowd from well past their Gulf Coast base. They opened for Eric Church, supported Lainey Wilson and Post Malone, played Red Rocks. Their Grand Ole Opry debut in 2018 earned a standing ovation. The ACM nominated them for Duo of the Year.
Longleaf Lo-fi is a purposeful lean into quieter terrain. Their earlier records — Burn It at Both Ends, The Coastal Plain, Dispatch to 16th Ave. — ran on country rock and honky-tonk underpinning. This one crosses the state line into Mississippi with acoustic arrangements and songs that take their time. The key cuts are “My Meridian,” “Peter From Picayune,” “Grace,” and “59.” They wrote them alongside Lance Roark, Sam Canty of Treaty Oak Revival, and Tennille Townes — collaborators who know how to make a line land. The vinyl launched as a surprise: 3,000 limited-edition copies, gone in under 24 hours.
The Houston date is a late-summer extension of the Longleaf Lo-fi Tour, which launched in January 2026 in Durham, NC, and has been running through theaters and festivals ever since.
