About Appalachian Road Show
All great music serves a purpose, but for the members of Appalachian Road Show, their collective goal transcends mere entertainment. The award-winning acoustic outfit is on a mission to illuminate the history, challenges, and rewards of life in that storied region and celebrate the spirit of the Appalachian people who call it home. They did so on their sophomore album Tribulation and are back again on the aptly titled album, Jubilation, a colorful song-filled journey chronicling not just the past but the present.
Appalachian Road Show includes Grammy-nominated banjoist Barry Abernathy, Grammy-winning fiddler Jim VanCleve, esteemed vocalist and mandolinist Darrel Webb, and guitarist Zeb Snyder. More about Appalachian Road Show is available at www.theappalachianroadshow.com.
