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 the latest episode of Roots Music Rambler, rising star Brit Taylor joins the show to talk about Kentucky Bluegrassed, her latest LP which is climbing the Americana charts. She told us where the idea came from to turn last year’s Kentucky Blue album into a bluegrass version.
Frank and Falls also talk about recent Jason Isbell shows and recommend some good tunes and artists in the Pickin’ the Grinnin’ segment! Get the full episode at rootsmusicrambler.com or wherever you get your podcasts!
