"The early Scottish and Irish immigrants who filtered into southern Appalachia brought with them their culture, their stories and their music. Their ballads, jigs, reels and rowdy tunes served as a foundation of what we know as the unique musical heritage of the region. Highland, Heath and Holler celebrates and documents this remarkable cultural transference with musicians who are both steeped in their own traditions and far reaching in their artistic world views."
