    Frequent Tin Angel performer Josh joplin returns with Among the Oak and Ash. Among the Oak and Ash is an ever evolving and changing collection of musicians playing songs based on and inspired by the traditional folk music of appalachia. Led by american singer songwriter Josh Joplin, among the oak and ash released their debut self-titled album in June of 2009 on verve records.

    Joplin first became enthralled with appalachian music when he was introduced to cari norris, the granddaughter of the late lily may ledford, an original coon creek girl and the first all-women string band in radio. He says, “I was like a wide-eyed anthropologist explaining my important new discovery of a lost culture to an audience of its descendents.” For him, it’s that elemental connection to traditional music and its humanity he returns to when he needs to be reminded “that there is something bigger in this world that threads us all to one another.”
