Band of the Week: Rising Appalachia


Playing the Fox Theater in Atlanta Friday December 19th, Rising Appalachia is not only a group that creates music to tickle your eardrums, but they are equally adept at raising your conscious level and attempting to lead you toward an insight on the inner-workings of the universe and the role of humanity within it. Their earthy sound is comparable to Nahko and the Medicine for the People, The Dirty Projectors, and Atlanta band Hello Ocho, with beautiful harmonies, spacious grooves, and an overall tribal vibe throughout much of their music. Their tunes are best enjoyed with in a dimly lit room, with a fire going and some of Washington state or Colorado's finest, and perhaps a glass of red wine - or by a camp fire, in the woods.



Their video below, clearly shot during an east coast winter, displays their music, their message and their undulating personas best. Enjoy.
