About Given the rise in popularity of the Folk, Rock, Bluegrass, and Americana genres in Boston and the surrounding Northeast, it only made sense that someone needed to write about it…so why not us? After all, we are not only huge fans, but musicians ourselves. For the past 7 years we have done our best to spotlight not only the artists blowing up on a national level, but most importantly, emerging and independent artists. Red Line Roots is focused on artists with connections to the communities we call home—namely, New England and North Carolina. We also know that roots music has been unfairly dominated by white, cisgender, straight men, and we believe it is critical to use our platform to highlight the voices of artists of color, women, and queer artists, even if there isn’t a direct connection to one of our home communities. Please contact Ken for features and interviews, keeping our site’s priorities in mind.
