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.
The latest Roots Music Rambler features Americana artist Jesse Lynn Madera, the wife of actor Hemky Madera. She told Frank and Falls a lot about her music and songwriting, including how her husband influences her writing.
Don’t miss the episode which also features Madera talking about her new album, her journey to becoming a musician and a lot more. Find it at rootsmusicrambler.com or wherever you get your podcasts.
