Black-Eyed Katydid<p>Sam Bush provided the comfort music I needed after a couple days of storm cleanup with no power. (We&#39;re fine.

Rainbow Rodeo<p>In our latest podcast, Leah Song of Rising Appalachia explains why the social justice-driven band decided to dial things back and record an album of songs that influenced them: Folk and Anchor. There are covers you might not expect, and that sends a message of its own.</p><p><a href="https://rainbowrodeomag.com/episode-23-rising-appalachia/" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" translate="no" target="_blank"><span class="invisible">https://</span><span class="ellipsis">rainbowrodeomag.com/episode-23</span><span class="invisible">-rising-appalachia/</span></a></p><p><a href="https://lgbtqia.space/tags/QueerCountry" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>QueerCountry</span></a> <a href="https://lgbtqia.space/tags/Americana" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Americana</span></a> <a href="https://lgbtqia.space/tags/CountryMusic" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>CountryMusic</span></a> <a href="https://lgbtqia.space/tags/RootsMusic" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>RootsMusic</span></a> <a href="https://lgbtqia.space/tags/LGBTQMusic" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>LGBTQMusic</span></a> <a href="https://lgbtqia.space/tags/QueerMusic" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>QueerMusic</span></a> <a href="https://lgbtqia.space/tags/LGBTQMusician" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>LGBTQMusician</span></a> <a href="https://lgbtqia.space/tags/bluegrass" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>bluegrass</span></a> <a href="https://lgbtqia.space/tags/FolkMusic" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>FolkMusic</span></a> <a href="https://lgbtqia.space/tags/newgrass" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>newgrass</span></a> <a href="https://lgbtqia.space/tags/Appalachia" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Appalachia</span></a></p>

I&#39;m intrigued by <a href="https://shakedown.social/tags/jazz" class="mention hashtag" rel="tag">#<span>jazz</span></a> giant Dave Holland&#39;s jaunts into progressive <a href="https://shakedown.social/tags/bluegrass" class="mention hashtag" rel="tag">#<span>bluegrass</span></a>. The only other session I know of is on John Hartford&#39;s Morning Bugle, a masterpiece. Holland&#39;s lyricism blends so well with those <a href="https://shakedown.social/tags/newgrass" class="mention hashtag" rel="tag">#<span>newgrass</span></a> pioneers.
