A new episode of Roots Music Rambler is live! This week, we talk to singer-songwriter and midwestern blue collar rocker Shepherd. He says 2025 could be a big year for new music. In fact, he’s got too many songs and not enough opportunity to record them.
Hear about his new single, his new role as a father and much more on the full episode at rootsmusicrambler.com or wherever you get your podcasts.
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.
