Joe Newberry / April Verch - Going Home

Through their strong musical traditions of the Ozarks and Canada's Ottawa Valley, Joe Newberry and April Verch take a little bit of home with them wherever they go. Now, through their new release Going Home, audiences can do the same.  The duo's debut release features 12 tracks recorded in November, 2016, at Good Luck Studios in Chapel Hill, N.C.  The songs range from exciting fiddle and banjo duets, to tender love songs and original compositions from the two well-known musicians. The result is an album that sounds like two old friends who have been playing together for years. In the words of Barry Poss, founder of Sugar Hill Records "Oh, but this is a good one!  Going Home is a simply gorgeous and intimate expression of musical multiculturalism.  Joe and April each bring superb musicianship from their respective Ozark/Appalachian and Canadian Ottawa Valley roots and while they never lose sight of their own unique traditions, their work together also serves to craft an entirely new musical aesthetic, one with it's own melting pot integrity."
