Chicagoan Francesca Folinazzo (Frank) founded Roots Music Rambler as a music and travel blog in a pre-pandemic world. COVID killed events and travel plus her desire to play her banjo. Falls texted her in 2023 and said, 'Let's bring it back as a podcast!' He was raised on John Prine, babysat on Waylon Jennings and taught to drink and cuss the proper, mountain way. He hails from Pikeville, Ky., the birthplace of Dwight Yoakum, whose annual festival is Hillbilly Days.
A new Roots Music Rambler drops Friday. This week, we dig deep into talking music festivals with Nate Riggs (NeighborN8), host of The Music Festivals Podcast.
Nate thinks music festivals may be the key to getting our crazy world out of its funk. We don’t disagree! Hear the full episode and his explanation at rootsmusicrambler.com or wherever you get your podcasts.
