Rising Appalachia Set to Perform at the Top Hat in May
Need another show to add to the calendar? Logjam is ready to hook you up once again.
Folk band Rising Appalachia are bringing their southern-yet-global sound to the Top Hat in the Spring. You'll be able to catch them there on Thursday, May 7th for a show at 9 PM.
Here's the info from Logjam's press release:
Logjam Presents is pleased to welcome Rising Appalachia for a live concert performance at the Top Hat on Thursday, May 7, 2020.
As world travelers for nearly two decades, Rising Appalachia have merged multiple global music influences with their own southern roots to create the inviting new folk album, Leylines. Remarkably the band has built its legion of listeners independently -- a self-made success story that has led to major festival appearances and sold-out shows at venues across the country.
Founded by sisters Leah and Chloe Smith, the band established an international fan base due to relentless touring, tireless activism, and no small degree of stubborn independence. However, for the first time, they opted to bring in a producer for the new album, teaming up with the legendary Joe Henry on the sessions. These were also their first recording sessions outside of the South. For 10 days, all six band members lived and recorded in a castle-like studio in Marin County, California, overlooking the Pacific Ocean. As a result, a sense of unity and immediacy can be heard throughout their seventh album, Leylines.
