From Hill and Holler W/ Ben Adams

From Hill and Holler explores early 20th century musical recordings from Appalachia. Defined largely by the use of the fiddle and banjo and techniques like shape-note singing, these folk songs are the product of European ancestry and influence from African rhythms.
