Melody Walker and Jacob Groopman Announce Fall Tour Dates


Hailing from the San Francisco Bay Area and the Blue Ridge Mountains of Virginia, respectively, singer-songwriter Melody Walker and picker extraordinaire Jacob Groopman have fused their influences into a style they like to call “Americali.” They define it as Americana with a California twist, but of course, it’s much more. Drawing from genres including bluegrass, rock, jazz, classical, Afrobeat, samba and Balkan folk, yet staying close to their American folk roots, the duo create literate music that honors tradition, yet sounds completely of the moment.

Their first album 'Gold Rush Goddess' was on my Best Of 2012 list, they have a new album dropping on October 1st 2013. In support of their upcoming new album 'We Made It Home' Melody Walker and Jacob Groopman Announce Fall Tour Dates. The album is available for Pre-Order on Bandcamp
