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.
Set a reminder for tomorrow morning as an all-new Roots Music Rambler drops. We spend time with Oklahoma singer-songwriter @loganmacmusic and hear some fun and funny stories. He told us how he came up with the final piece of the puzzle for the song “Steel toed boots” while eavesdropping at a diner once.
Plus Falls recaps Railbird and Frank and Falls share this week’s pickin’ the grinnin’ choices.

An all-new Roots Music Rambler drops Friday and we have an entertaining show for you with the fun and talented singer-songwriter @loganmacmusic. We talk about his songwriting journey, the death of his father, life in the oil fields and a lot more.
Back when he worked in the fields, he and his buddies would dream. Surprisingly enough, he dreamed about something other than being a music star!
