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, The Mallett Brothers join Frank and Falls to talk about their new album “Higher up in the Hills.”
The band was recently featured on an episode of American Forests on PBS, a show hosted by legendary musican Chuck Leavell. Will talked about how that collaboration came together.
