It is a foregone conclusion that Country, Folk, and Americana music has at least some of its roots in the music of the American South and Appalachian traditional music. In the 1917 publication “English Folk Songs from the Southern Appalachians,” folklorist Cecil Sharp describes, “The present  inhabitants …are  the  direct  descendants of  the  original  settlers  who  were  emigrants  from  England  and, I  suspect, the  lowlands  of  Scotland. …I am  unable  to  say;  but  it  is  fairly  safe,  I  think,  to  conclude  that  the present-day  residents  of  this  section  of  the  mountains  are  the  descendants of  those  who  left  the  shores  of  Britain  some  time  in  the eighteenth  century.” It is no surprise then, that Scott Ashworth, hailing from Denny, Falkirk, Scotland makes his way to The Amp’s pages with his debut LP, Ghosts and Broken Men.
