Excellent show! I’ve been going to see Rising Appalachia for many many years now and every show is a treat! The news of this being the last season Salvage Station is incredibly sad, as it has remained my favorite Asheville venue since it came about . I hope they’re successful in finding a new home of similar quality and beauty!

Loved the show! Great venue with easy parking and entry process, and good food and drinks on offer. The performances from the openers, Meschiya Lake and crew, to the street puppeteers and, of course, Rising Appalachia themselves were awesome! I look forward to seeing them all again.

I love Rising Appalachia! They're concert in Tallahassee was an absolute delight from start to finish. Their seamless blend of folk, bluegrass, and world music captivated the audience from the moment they took the stage. With soul-stirring vocals, intricate instrumentals, and a contagious energy, they created an unforgettable experience. The way they effortlessly wove together traditional sounds with modern influences showcased their unparalleled talent and creativity. Each song was like a journey, taking the audience on a musical adventure filled with passion, authenticity, and joy. The connection they forged with the crowd was palpable, creating a sense of community and unity that lingered long after the final note faded away. Rising Appalachia's concert was not just a performance; it was a celebration of culture, diversity, and the power of music to bring people together. If you ever have the chance to see them live, don't hesitate – it's an experience you won't soon forget.

About Rising Appalachia Music

Rising Appalachia brings to the stage a collection of sounds, stories, and songs steeped in tradition and a devotion to world culture. Intertwining a deep reverence for folk music and a passion for justice, they have made it their life’s work to sing songs that speak to something ancient yet surging with relevance. Whether playing at Red Rocks or in rail cars, at Italian street fairs or to Bulgarian herbalists, this fiercely independent band has blazed a unique and colorful path across the globe. 11 years into their movement, Rising Appalachia believes that the roots of all these old songs are vital to our ever evolving soundscape.

Led by the collective voice of sisters Leah and Chloe, and joined by their beloved band - percussionist Biko Casini and bassist/guitarist David Brown - Rising Appalachia is a melting pot of folk music simplicity, textured songwriting, and those bloodline harmonies that only siblings can pull off. Listen for a tapestry of song, clawhammer banjo tunes, fiddle, double bass, acoustic guitar, djembe, barra, bodhran, spoken word, and a wealth of musical layering that will leave you called to action and lulled into rhythmic dance simultaneously. It is both genre bending and familiar at the same time. Proudly born and raised in the concrete jungle of Atlanta, Georgia, sharpening their instincts in the mountains of Appalachia, and fine tuning their soul on the streets of New Orleans they have crafted a 6-album career from the dusts of their passion.

In 2015 Rising Appalachia founded the Slow Music Movement, to help maintain an independent musical spirit in the face of such a fast-paced world. They are creatively committed to keeping their work accessible at the local street level as well as expanding to larger audiences abroad, and have continued to maintain autonomy by self- managing, recording, producing and creating, and directing their work.
They are greatly honored to do the work that they do.


“Music is the tool with which we wield political prowess. Melody for the Roots of each of us…spreading song and sound around the globe. Music has become our script for vision- not just for aural pleasure, not just for hobby, but now as a means to connect and create in ways that we aren’t taught by mainstream culture. We are building community and tackling social injustice through melody, making the stage reach out with wide arms to gather this great family. It has taken on its own personality, carrying us all along the journey. Heres to poetic observations, social change, lyrical messages, political focus, symphonic coercing, ferocious bantering, bicycles and train tracks, primal will, fresh air, harmony, flow, and beautiful noise.”- Leah Song.
