Bio / Background
The traditional music of Scotland and Ireland first found its way into the back country of the Blue Ridge Mountains over 200 years ago with Scots-Irish settlers. This Celtic music formed the foundation for our traditional music of Appalachia.
Steve and Ruth, both of Scots-Irish heritage, take the listener from the traditional Celtic music of Scotland and Ireland that migrated into the Appalachian Mountains, through the early music of the Southern Highlands, and on to five new songs written by Ruth that are representative of the Celtic Appalachian musical heritage and experience.
Steve and Ruth live in the Blue Ridge Mountains of western North Carolina. This small region in the corner of North Carolina, which includes east Tennessee and southwest Virginia, is one of the richest areas for traditional music in the United States. From the Carter Family to Doc Watson to Frank Proffit Sr. and countless others,the music of the Southern Appalachians was born and lives here today.
