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.
Long-time Nashville singer-songwriter George Ducas says in songwriting, you can’t polish a turd. It has to start with a good idea and grow from there. He explained on Roots Music Rambler this week and opened the door for Falls to take a shot at bro country.
Ducas joined the show to talk about his new album, Long Way From Home, it’s producer Pete Anderson, his journey through 30 years of writing and recording and more.
Plus Frank and Falls talk about recent incredible concert experience and share their picks of the week for new music.
