In the five years since it was founded by musician Brian Carroll, Red Line Roots has fought to shed light not only on well established artists, but also the emerging, independent musicians and bands creating amazing music in and around New England. Visit their website for dozens of music reviews, exclusive interviews with artists, and the fabled Old Spruce Sessions.

Locals Covering Locals was created by Red Line Roots, in partnership with Nine Athens Music, to share songs that local musicians felt needed to be heard. The compilations feature selected local musicians covering favorite songs written by their peers, friends, and local heroes. Songs that deserve a broader audience; that deserve to be sung in not just one, but many voices; songs that move people.
