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. Join Francesca and Falls for Roots Music Rambler, a podcast exploration of the where as much as the who or what. We’ll 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 they’re from and how that impacted the music we know and love. It’s more than just their influences. It’s their families. Communities. Cultures. This show is a fun combination of music, travel, history and more. We dig into the stories from artists, musicians, songwriters, producers, fans and beyond, that don’t just expose their musical influences, but their life influences. 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. Join us for the exploration of the real roots of music on Roots Music Rambler.","last_synced_at":"2026-07-10T22:17:37.252618+00:00","page_url":"https://stenobird.com/podcast/roots-music-rambler-6599265"},"episode":{"title":"Emily Scott Robinson's fifth studio album brings Appalachia alive","slug":"emily-scott-robinson-s-fifth-studio-album-brings-appalachia-alive","published_at":"2026-01-30T13:00:00+00:00","page_url":"https://stenobird.com/podcast/roots-music-rambler-6599265/emily-scott-robinson-s-fifth-studio-album-brings-appalachia-alive","show_page_url":"https://stenobird.com/podcast/roots-music-rambler-6599265","url":"https://rootsmusic.link/emilyscottrobinson","audio_url":"https://pdcn.co/e/traffic.megaphone.fm/MPNL7655210455.mp3?updated=1769449035","summary":"Emily Scott Robinson may just be one of the most underrated singer-songwriters in the Americana space. When folks get hold of her fifth studio album Appalachia her status should rise considerably. Robinson joined us on Roots Music Rambler for an episode that drops on the very day Appalachia hits stores and streaming services to talk about the album, the songs, her background and so much more. Robinson, who is originally from North Carolina but now calls Colorado home, wrote the record on the tail end of Hurricane Helene which devastated much of the Western Carolinas and East Tennessee. Her songs elevate the beauty of that land and the people there. She talked about that beauty, especially the neighbors-helping-neighbors response to the flooding and devastation. Robinson also shared some behind the scenes stories of being and Oh Boy! Records artist, the legacy label of John Prine, recommended a Pickin’ the Grinnin’ choice of her own (Palymra) and a lot more in a fun, engaging conversation well worth the watch or listen. Also in this episode, Frank asks Falls about his new podcast client Katie Combs. Falls, who produces podcasts through his day job consultancy at Falls+Parnters, is now producing Listen, Honey! Combs’s new show has already offered up two episodes of particular interest to Roots Music Rambler listeners. She has in-depth and not music-focused episodes out now with Nicholas Jamerson and Tanner Horton (The Creekers) well worth watching. The two also share this week’s Pickin’ the Grinnin’ choices for new music recommendations. Frank raves about King Margo’s song “Send Me Out Like Autumn” and Falls raves about Western Kentucky roots rock band Hollerhead.
