The Appalachian Mountains reach across the Eastern portion of the United States, from Georgia to deep into New England. A wide array of different musical types flourish in this region, including bluegrass, gospel and some styles of old-time folk music whose roots can be traced back to the British/Irish immigrants who settled here centuries back. This edition in the Rough Guide series presents a sampler of some of the diverse musical influences that call the Appalachian Mountain region home. Listeners can expect an exciting blend of fiddles, banjo, guitar, bass and country style vocals. Artists featured here include: Cox Family, Peter Rowan, Claire Lynch, Larry Sparks, Laurel Canyon Ramblers and more.
