About
Where there are people, there is music. In our celebration of melodies and lyrics, harmonies and riffs, we typically focus on the songs or the people who wrote them. We often overlook the where.
Welcome to Roots Music Rambler!
Join Francesca Folinazzo and Jason Falls for Roots Music Rambler, a podcast exploration of the where as much as the who or what. Weâll interview emerging and established artists, fans and others in Americana, Outlaw Country, Bluegrass, Blues, Roots, Soul, World and beyond. But we will always get to the stories of where theyâre from and how that impacted the music we know and love.
Music follows the path of human movement. We trace the steps to bring better understanding to what we hear today and why we love it.
Where music, travel, history and culture intersect
Join us for the exploration of the real roots of music on Roots Music Rambler. Available wherever you get your podcasts.
