- Directors- Chloe and Leah Smith
Cinematographer- Taylor Hellhake
Camera 2- Andrew Anderson
Band- Chloe and Leah Smith, David Brown, Biko Casini, Arouna Diarra, Duncan Wickel

Filmed in a cryptic cavern in Appalachia, Cuckoo is a traditional folk song that Leah and Chloe learned from their mother and her band The Rosin Sisters. This full band version highlights the connection between the many styles of music (blues, west african, irish) that blended together in Appalachia while bringing it to a more modern and rhythmic arena. Capturing the magic and mischief of some of the inspirational figures in Rising Appalachia's life, Cuckoo is an old song with new resonance.
This song is dedicated to Whitlock Connah, Leah and Chloe's godfather, who was a fine harmonica player and folk sculptor as well as a deep soul man down in Georgia. He was one of the first people to encourage the sisters to sing and pursue music, and for that, they are forever inspired and uplifted by his spirit.

"A little Appalachian magic goes a long way in reconnecting our consciousness together. Nostalgic moments for the heart mind and soul." ~ Stewart Brennan - World United Music
Where is that quote from? I love it but I can't find it online anywhere. I'm intrigued!
This reminds me of my Grandma Edie who always had a song in her voice, dance in her step, and wine fermenting in her sitting room - a fierce firecracker, born on the 4th of July ❤
AWESOME Carly. Lucky you to have known her. She sounds wonderful and I'm sure you've inherited some of her traits. 😁

@@emilygraham9968 I certainly hope I have 🙏 thanks, Emily
lol, Cool.
Bravo! I am all in, this is the most invigorating music and music video I have come across in a very very long time! The creativity of the video presentation along with the quality of the filming, and most of all the talent of the musicians and the singers and all the actors in the video were astounding. I have played music for 55 years and I was blown away with the musicianship of the band. There’s such beauty in music when it’s not played beyond a comfortable sound level. This is beautiful and I am addicted!
Such a beautiful song. Awesome performance!
I'm so lucky to of come across these amazing artists. You're lyrics are truly inspiring. Much peace and love to you all xo
Seen these sisters a couple times...serenity to the soul !
I just randomly found this band on you tube, incredible.
No randomness. Only synchronicity! 😁
Same here and I 👍
@@heart_of_freedom_idan well said !! 🤗
I found my way here today, 11/7/2020. I've been needing this but did not know it.
Same
Love this song and the special tribute to the great Whit Connah during the second verse! So glad to stumble on this video. Appalachia is a place of many cultural heritages and y’all do a fantastic job bringing us together. Blessings!

Lovely tune as always. So stoked to see these 2 gals live for the first time in Montreal in 2 days! 😁
Amazing as usual!! Love these woman!!!
This is truly INCREDIBLE! Thank you 🙏
Your music has risen from good and interesting to the level of artistic.
Can't wait to see you in November!!
This is a Sublime version of 1 of my Favorite Songs. I'm loving this vocals, style, and the musicians of your Band. Art in Motion 👑
That was amazing! I've got tears sneaking out the corners of my eyes. Such beautiful, authentic artistry! Can't wait to go see RA play The Ark in Ann Arbor, MI this November. Even tho I've been a fan since 09 or so, this will be my first RA show!! I Am. Stoked!!!!
Cheryl Wilson oh how I wish I was going to be there too!! Enjoy and dance a dance for me! Much love and light!
Mountain people . I live in the Mountains of Brazil and sometimes I can notice so many similarities between the profile os those people. But the great advantage of having this Celtic / Gaelic musical root as an inheritance, there is nothing to compare. My Grandpa was from Scotland, and i have this good taste in my veins.
I live in the Smokey mountains. It’s pretty amazing
ola carlos eu também sou do brasil.. q legal saber q as pessoas do brasil também gostam delas.. namastê amigo!🙏❤️
This is actually an English folk song not Celtic. We do have some you know.
@@momenthealing Namastê. Rsrsrs, vc com essa saudação, me lembrou meu querido Professor de Yoga, o saudoso Prof. Hermógenes que me ajudou a curar de uma depressão mortal.
@@carlosm.devasconcelllos3939 nossa.. fico feliz em saber que vc está curado.. e ainda mais por esse professor tão especial.. parabéns!
Beautiful, yes, Stunning....sound and imagery. Thank you
Excellent video, musicians and singers are fantastic. So much to see I watched it ten times and still saw new things. Well done to all.
Everything is so creative, the outfits are amazing. Cheers from Costa Rica!
I love that this features a local venue and community members. So special and familiar. Giving thanks for all the Appalachain Asheville vibes in this video!
They definitely walk their talk
Where in Asheville was this filmed? Such an amazing video, so glad to see this happening in these mountains and this beautiful community!
Luke Mahan - my intuition is to not share the location publicly. Email me and I’ll tell you. starlingdarkness@gmail.com
@@sterlinghearth6672 thank you for the discretion. I tell almost no one of this gem of a place just blocks away.
Hot Springs, N Carolina here
I LOVE this band! ❤❤❤❤
Crawford Notch 1892! On the Fifth day of May ! Nice blend, musicians! Wine or whiskey no matter
I like this color palette, and the 1920s style, real instruments and real musicians. I think musicians are very complicated people out of all the artistic fields. I'm fascinated by that archetype. I'm a painter and writer, and have no interest in creating music, at all. But, music is a big part of my life, and I have been listening to a handful of artists for the last two decades in order to understand their music, philosophy and message. Bob Dylan is of course on that list, as well as a few others, but Dylan is my recent exploration. I listen to the same CD for months, alternatively, switching and shuffling, music I collected for years. I don't do I tunes. I have a great sound system that goes all over my house with multiple stereo so that I get the full concert experience. no other form of entertainment at my house. only sound.
Mejgan Zia hyperfocusing on Dylan? I’ve been there!
❤
U r fortunate - & I wish u well
Sounds ideal to me... I would prefer if music was in 432hz as it apparently should be!
Can't stop listening to it, same as with Resilient...touches deep emotions...reconecting to all women, hummanity...love, peace and long life and memory to our ancestors from Argentina.
This video and this music reminds me my favourite pub nights ever at the Lismore (Glasgow), how many adventures and people I've met there, how many stories to be told. Thank you ladies
Absolutely stunning ladies! My soul is transfixed. Thank you for the life flowing from this beautiful video.
Awesome. I love it! Thanks, ladies... Big Love!!!
There was an Irish band, Train to Sligo, introduced me to this song many years ago. Beautifully done!
This is one of the best music videos I've seen in a long time.
Wow I've really enjoyed the evolution from fireside jam to duo acoustic and now full band well produced with theme video. Love it !!! Would like to see your song stand up speak out be loud with full band. Seeing you both play a multitude of instruments in different genres I really appreciate knowing you could just play using techniques difficult for most but instead allow for feeling and other musicians to bring your music and covers to life. Mixing songs and videos from awesome duets to Orchestrating and being just a member of the band.
absolutely stunning!! the outfits, the cinematography & of course the music are incredible✨
Just started listening to xour music while studying because I love the cool clam sounds of you. Now I'm sitting here with a heart full of wanderlust and no motivation to continue working at all :D
Love, love love the song and all of you!
You guys make beautiful music. Love you all so much!!! Thank you!! 💗✨
Beautiful magic
Ladies you have done it again, but you really have outdone yourselves with this one!
(Your 59 yr old female fan in Indiana)✌💞
Thank you for my new favorite song!
Beautiful little film, too! Bravo!
Oh, now that is just tip top!! 👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼
I'm rereading Someplace to be Flying by Charles deLint. One of the characters sings a snippet of this tune. I hadn't heard it when I first read the book, but I was practically jumping up and down when I recognized it this time.
I love your song and your beautiful performance , I'm from Brasil . I know that I'm invisible to you, but believe me, you are the best,
Wow, such an awesome duo, truly sisters.
One of the best I've seen. A rich backdrop of an era u can literally slip into and be in the room with as the kaleidoscope of humans not only perform masterfully at their own art, I even got attached to each one. So good, so sweet for this cuckoo. 😍
Creation at it’s best gives us all hope!
Totalmente apaixonada pelas músicas, estilo e energia da banda!... Fodástico!!!
💜 you gals n guys always make me happy 💜
Oh this is excellent! I have watched it three times this morning. Thank you!
So in Love with this music, song, and video. The healing energy. And All the beautiful intentions behind the creation.
GO GO GO! LOVE, LIGHT AND BLESSINGS TO YOU!💞💞💞💫💫💫💫
j'adore, tellement beau à écouter, on est projeté dans une autre époque.
I love that at 4:31 there is a person reading a story to a dog ^_^
All are related.
Please oh please do a show in England!
This is a great song. Excellent harmonies, rhythm, and lyrics. I consider it to be the only song by Rising Appalachia that was done right.
Goooooooodddddd!!!!!❤❤❤
Love you guys! Great dancing song as well. :)
Beautiful songbirds, songs from moonshine runners and gin joint speakeasies to ease our quarantined spirits
I adore these ladies
