Hi, I’m Francesca!

Roots Music Rambler is a passion project for me. I’ve been blogging for almost 15 years and recently decided it was time to merge my two main passions, travel and music, and start a new site. I’ve written about music on my previous sites but I felt compelled to dedicate some time and space to the discovery of the roots of music through travel. As of right now (this could very well change over time), the objectives of Roots Music Rambler are to:

  1. Travel to the places that inspire, or have inspired, singer/songwriters of the roots-music genres.
  2. Travel to places where traditional music is ingrained in the cultural identity.
  3. Trace the journeys of specific instruments and music styles to identify their influence in today’s music.

My passion for music started at an early age (read more about that here). I became interested in travel around the same time, though the serious wanderlust didn’t officially set in until my early 20s. But how lucky am I that I now get to merge my two passions with another one (writing) to set off on new adventures?

I mentioned that I’ve been blogging for some time now… I have one other current blog, The Working Mom’s Travels, which I started in 2011, shortly after my daughter was born. She’s now 9 and has a younger brother who’s 5. They sometimes come along on my musical journeys; you can find those stories over at The Working Mom’s Travels. I hope you, too, will join me on my future journeys as I discover the roots of music through travel!
