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.
On Friday’s new episode of Roots Music Rambler, Atomic Junction founder Aaron Perlut talks about his band’s new album, its first full-length LP. The St. Louis-based Alt Country outfit traveled to New England and sequestered itself in its producer’s recording studio to knock it out.
Hear more of the album including clips from several songs, plus learn more about the band and its quirky perspective and voice by listening to the full episode.
Frank and Falls also share their Tyler Childers experience, discuss Shooter Jennings’ latest news and more.
