Alma Russ Trio

Alma Russ Trio hails from Mill Spring where she lives when not on the road performing. Alma is known as a serious contributor to the country roots music resurgence. She brings her own unique style to the tunes of country greats like Dolly Parton and Patsy Cline. Trigger, Saving Country Music, said: “The sound of Alma Russ is less an attempt at impersonation, and more an amalgam of many great singers of country and roots interwoven into an original approach…” A singer/songwriter and multi-instrumentalist playing guitar, fiddle and banjo, she is joined by a fluid group of band mates presenting a mix of country gold, Appalachian tradition, and Americana soul. For this performance her trio includes electric guitar player Adam Rose of Asheville and upright bassist Caroline Miller of Maggie Valley.
