Before recording his third record, Winston-Salem native Caleb Caudle moved home from New Orleans, kicked the bottle and hunkered down to study early Randy Travis and 1980s-era Merle Haggard. All three influences colour Carolina Ghost, Caudle’s exceptional (and sure to be his breakthrough) new album.
