Rattle and Roar is the second studio album by the Earls of Leicester, the group assembled by Jerry Douglas to perform the classic Flatt and Scruggs repertoire with rigorous fidelity to the original sound. Released in 2016, the record features Douglas on Dobro alongside Charlie Cushman on banjo, Shawn Camp on guitar, Johnny Warren on fiddle, Barry Bales on bass, and Tim O'Brien on mandolin. The album includes material associated with the Flatt and Scruggs radio and touring years, including hard-driving instrumentals and vocal numbers that showcase the ensemble's commitment to era-specific tone and feel. The Earls of Leicester represent one of the most musically informed tribute projects in the genre's history.
