    A feature track on Shemekia Copeland’s celebrated new album, Uncivil War, “Clotilda’s on Fire” tells the powerful story of the last slave ship to sail to America, more than 50 years after the slave trade was outlawed.  Produced by Will Kimbrough and driven by Jason Isbell’s gritty guitar playing, Copeland’s captivating vocals tell the tale with equal measures righteous anger over injustices past and celebration of resilient people looking to a better day.
