Приєднався 25 лип 2010
Sisters Leah and Chloe Smith founded Rising Appalachia on their back porch in Georgia, playing simple fiddle and banjo melodies and leaning into their families rich musical traditions. It has since become a globally recognized Americana and world folk ensemble, celebrating a unique blend of Southern-rooted music. The band features David Brown, Duncan Wickel, and Biko Casini, and infuses a unique tapestry of sounds. Rising Appalachia has captivated audiences for nearly 2 decades, from busking in New Orleans to touring Europe, and has been featured at prestigious venues like Red Rocks, Telluride Bluegrass Festival and Woodford Folk Fest. Their performances at NPR's Tiny Desk and Preservation Jazz Hall have solidified their status in the folk music scene. Their newest album, 'Folk and Anchor' is a curated collection of cover songs, includes remakes from Bob Dylan to James Blake, Erykah Badu to Beyonce and showcases their eclectic style, inviting listeners into a rich musical journey.
Texas Hold 'Em
Tastes of our new album “Folk and Anchor”
There has never been a better inroad for us to cover a Beyonce song then right now. We are not always perusing the top pop charts but this one caught our attention for all the obvious reasons.
Here’s a rough cut of our take of “Texas Hold ‘Em” by the Queen B herself… Featuring clawhammer Banjo by our long time musical comrade, music historian, and dear friend @rhiannongiddens. Follow her incredible work yall! P.s banjo art by @LeahSongMusic

Rising Appalachia - I Need a Forest Fire (James Blake & Bon Iver Cover) [Official Music Video]
Переглядів 31 тис.Місяць тому
“I Need A Forest Fire,” is our interpretation of a rich and righteous James Blake track. We have been big fans of his artistry and aural weavings for many years and wanted to do a folk rendition of this striking song. The texture of its sounds stretch far and wide in atmospheric rhythms as well as the lyrics and it took some deep digging to conceptualize what Blake was perhaps trying to say... ...
Rising Appalachia - I Shall Be Released (Bob Dylan Cover) [Official Audio]

“I Shall Be Released” A song by the lyrical master Bob Dylan, I shall Be Released has touched our hearts for many years and it is an honor to share with you our rendition. It feels reverent and unassuming in its lilt and sway, a folk ballad of soul and grit whose chorus is the medicine we need in these times. “I see my light come shining. From the west into the east. Any day now. Any day now. I...

"Can I Sleep in Your Arms” Our rendition of Willie Nelson's original, the true king of country and the open road. America's wild and rugged grandfather. Sweetheart of the serenade. We have cherished his impact on the music world for many years and wanted to tip our hits to him with this stripped down simple country cover. Some of the sweetest tunes are the most simple and we loved the lilt and ...

Well, what can we say? This one was the most obvious inroad into the wild and prolific work of Queen B; Beyonce herself. We were beyond ourselves with excitement when Beyonce brought clawhammer banjo into the first single of her recent country album, Cowboy Carter, showcasing the incredibly rich history of the black banjo, and its roots in Africa and the African American south. She speaks about...
Rising Appalachia - The Bones (Maren Morris Cover) [Official Audio]

"The Bones,” (Maren Morris, Hozier) was an unsuspecting cover for us, a song that first caught my attention as the godmother to an amazing little 6 year old, and she belted out its lyrics over and over again. We are and have always been big fans of Hozier, an Irish folk gentleman, so where he sings we pay attention. Maren Morris's fierce voice cuts straight through to get anyone singing at the ...

"On and On” - as sisters who grew up in the 90’s in downtown Atlanta, Erykah Badu was a patron goddess of sorts to our teenage years in the city. Tracks from her 1997 album Baduizm rang all throughout the halls of our highschool and early adulthood years as she set such a beautiful table for natural women to express themselves. She emits abstract art and radical feminism from everything she doe...

"The Night we Met ''- this song reeled us in with the very first opening line… “I am not the only traveler who has not repaid his debts”. What a relatable line! After traveling as a touring musician for 15 years, one realizes how many people have helped keep us afloat along the road. Opened their doors for us to take a few hours of needed sleep in some warm beds. Lent a hand schlepping instrume...
