Description
No Depression started its life as a quarterly print magazine in 1995, fueled by its founding editors' passion for alt-country music and long-form journalism. Over the course of its first print run, it helped solidify the importance of Americana and roots music on the national stage. In the years since, No Depression has developed a robust web publication, publishing long features, honest criticism, and weekly columns in addition to its wealth of
community-driven content. In 2015, to celebrate the publication's 20th anniversary, the FreshGrass Foundation brought it back to print as a high-end, ad-free, quarterly journal focused once again on long-form music journalism.Roots music wouldn't happen at all without a certain tool kit. Musicians need instruments to make acoustic music and all kinds of wires and technologies to project that music
and transfer it to eager listeners. The Summer 2020 issue of No Depression will explore equipment old and new and digital innovations by sharing stories of luthiers, builders, machinery, and even less tangible songwriting tools to better understand how exactly roots music is made.
