Celebrate their induction into the National Fiddler Hall of Fame. Formed in 2018, Appalachian Road Show has emerged as one of modern bluegrass and Americana music’s most compelling and authentic voices. Built around a shared commitment to preserving and celebrating the culture, stories, and spirit of Appalachia, the band combines elite musicianship, powerful songwriting, soaring harmonies, and deeply rooted storytelling into an unforgettable live experience. The mission is simple: honor and tell the truth of the people and places that shaped Appalachian music, and carry that authenticity forward to a new generation. Appalachian Road Show presents a musical journey through the peaks and valleys of Appalachia — from coalfields and churches to rail lines and front porches — exploring themes of faith, hardship, family, labor, love, loss, war, resilience, and heritage through songs that are timeless, human, and profoundly American. Sam Bush - There was only one prize-winning teenager carrying stones big enough to say thanks, but no thanks to Roy Acuff. Only one son of Kentucky finding a light of inspiration from Bill Monroe and his Blue Grass Boys and catching a fire from Bob Marley and The Wailers. Only one progressive hippie allying with like-minded conspirators, rolling out the New Grass revolution, and then leaving the genre’s torch-bearing band behind as it reached its commercial peak. There is only one consensus pick of peers and predecessors, of the traditionalists, the rebels, and the next gen devotees. Music’s ultimate inside outsider. Or is it outside insider? There is only one Sam Bush. The National Fiddler Hall of Fame's mission is to honor individuals for their contributions to fiddling, to preserve, educate and promote the art of fiddling and it’s historical and social significance.
