  • Description

    No Depression started its life as a quarterly print magazine in 1995, fueled by its founding editors' passion for alt-country music and long-form journalism. Over the course of its first print run, it helped solidify the importance of Americana and roots music on the national stage. In the years since, No Depression has developed a robust web publication, publishing long features, honest criticism, and weekly columns in addition to its wealth of community-driven content. In 2015, to celebrate the publication's 20th anniversary, the FreshGrass Foundation brought it back to print as a high-end, ad-free, quarterly journal focused once again on long-form music journalism.Roots music wouldn't happen at all without a certain tool kit. Musicians need instruments to make acoustic music and all kinds of wires and technologies to project that music and transfer it to eager listeners. The Summer 2020 issue of No Depression will explore equipment old and new and digital innovations by sharing stories of luthiers, builders, machinery, and even less tangible songwriting tools to better understand how exactly roots music is made. Included in this issue: • Alice Gerrard • Alan Lomax • Béla Fleck & Toumani Diabaté • Pharis & Jason Romero • Jaime Wyatt • Wild Ponies • Kendl Winter, The Lowest Pair • Cruz Contreras, The Black Lillies • Martin, Breedlove, and Taylor Guitars • Fanny's House of Music • Birthplace of Country Music Museum • American Folklife Center at the Library of Congress ... And so much more! CONTENT Photos/Art: • Original design by Marcus Amaker • Original cover art by D. Norsen • Original photos from No Depression readers
