My name is Debra Lynn Joseph and I make the kind of music that makes you wonder if you should shout or take your shirt off—I call it Appalachian Soul Music. My earliest memories are of singing at my mama’s piano, tambourine {or maracas!} in hand. Somehow, those many long nights of rip-roarin’, Pentecostal, Holy Ghost sangin’ have come to harmonize with the conviction of folksy storytelling, sultry soul-singing, and bluegrassy toe-tapping. In my soul, my story, and my setlist—it all belongs (like shouting AND taking your shirt off).
