2020 release. Through new-generation interpretations of traditional roots music, the group boldly chronicles the shared struggles, perseverance, and traditions of America's Appalachian region. It is one centered around community and it's connection to heritage, encouraging cross-cultural empathy and emotional support to not lose hope in times of trouble. Tribulation features a dynamic, artful flux of slow-churning ballads with fiery, foot-stomping acoustic jams and powerful spoken word excerpts woven together by a common thread of an ever-present mission to preserve Appalachian culture.
