- Directors- Chloe and Leah Smith
Cinematographer- Taylor Hellhake
Camera 2- Andrew Anderson
Band- Chloe and Leah Smith, David Brown, Biko Casini, Arouna Diarra, Duncan Wickel
Special guests- Cortina Jenelle, Alina Q, Juan David de Narvaez, Victor Verde and his sons Temoc and Tolan, Truth I and his daughter Persei, Shea Olinger, Owen Cauley and Jonas Hall-Gariano, Clara Zander, Lucretia Vandyke, Dyhan Mount, Indy Srinath, and Lily Henley.
Filmed in a cryptic cavern in Appalachia, Cuckoo is a traditional folk song that Leah and Chloe learned from their mother and her band The Rosin Sisters. This full band version highlights the connection between the many styles of music (blues, west african, irish) that blended together in Appalachia while bringing it to a more modern and rhythmic arena. Capturing the magic and mischief of some of the inspirational figures in Rising Appalachia's life, Cuckoo is an old song with new resonance.
This song is dedicated to Whitlock Connah, Leah and Chloe's godfather, who was a fine harmonica player and folk sculptor as well as a deep soul man down in Georgia. He was one of the first people to encourage the sisters to sing and pursue music, and for that, they are forever inspired and uplifted by his spirit.

One of the best I've seen. A rich backdrop of an era u can literally slip into and be in the room with as the kaleidoscope of humans not only perform masterfully at their own art, I even got attached to each one. So good, so sweet for this cuckoo. 😍
These ladies were a random find in pandemic times. They always make me wanna dance. And I do. Light for the psyche. Thank you for that.
Exactly!
Me too!
Congrats and welcome! Dance away and listen with grace! Sheesh what a beautiful community

I have been in a deep depression since I found out I have end stage COPD a cpl yrs ago..since I found these ladies, I have felt a certain lovely peace..thank you so much,Appalachian Rising!!

I love the cultural and time period cocktail mix! The filmography is intoxicating. Singing is divine. Love it!
Hello from North West Ireland. As a folk and traditional lover this music resonates greatly with me. Would love to hear you’s live someday.
I’ve just put a space like this in my vortex of desire. Yes please universe I am ready to be surrounded by my soul tribe in a soul enriching space for relaxation and oneness with beautiful angels expressing themselves through music. Thank you universe, I am truly blessed and thanks for this stunning moment of enlightenment. Your music is like a soothing lullaby for my heart and soul, thank you 🙏
Bravo! I am all in, this is the most invigorating music and music video I have come across in a very very long time! The creativity of the video presentation along with the quality of the filming, and most of all the talent of the musicians and the singers and all the actors in the video were astounding. I have played music for 55 years and I was blown away with the musicianship of the band. There’s such beauty in music when it’s not played beyond a comfortable sound level. This is beautiful and I am addicted!
These two are manifesting some truly beautiful energy. Beautiful inside and out and reaching far into the communities where they perform. Awaiting the day RA hits Jacksonville Florida. Be blessed!
"A little Appalachian magic goes a long way in reconnecting our consciousness together. Nostalgic moments for the heart mind and soul." ~ Stewart Brennan - World United Music

Love this song and the new video is beautifully made! Your at the top of my playlist these days and I can't tell you how grateful I am to have found music that makes me feel something! So very rare and unique!
This reminds me of my Grandma Edie who always had a song in her voice, dance in her step, and wine fermenting in her sitting room - a fierce firecracker, born on the 4th of July ❤
AWESOME Carly. Lucky you to have known her. She sounds wonderful and I'm sure you've inherited some of her traits. 😁

Same
My Irish roots, dig your vibe! Waiting for the pendulum to swing back again...absolutely confident it will. No friction or drag for you though, you goddesses are perfectly balanced and oh so right on!
Rocking it from France ! I love it ! My dream is to go to Appalachians moutains now !
The mountains are to behold. Amazing trails, well worth it!
I am all in! I am blown away by this band. The quality of musicianship, of the acting, directing of this quality video. This music is so refreshing that I don’t know how to classify it; it’s so moving . I think there’s so many different dances that could be done to it. After playing over 55 years as a musician I was really moved by the quality of this band and the attractiveness of this video. I want more !
Thank you for my new favorite song!
j'adore, tellement beau à écouter, on est projeté dans une autre époque.
Absolutely love this group! Thank you for a great video and music!
Dear god... can they be any more perfect?
This is one of the best music videos I've seen in a long time.
Oh this is excellent! I have watched it three times this morning. Thank you!
Just started listening to xour music while studying because I love the cool clam sounds of you. Now I'm sitting here with a heart full of wanderlust and no motivation to continue working at all :D

Makes me wish that I was living in the fantasy world of this video.
Yes ..a feast for the eyes..couldn't put my finger on it..a "feast"
Thank.well said
I love your song and your beautiful performance , I'm from Brasil . I know that I'm invisible to you, but believe me, you are the best,
Interesting, lyrics taken from several folk/country songs. The folk process, songs evolving. Very nice arrangement, good band!
They are amazing
Brilliant. Thank you.
Me and the pup danced in the kitchen. Much love to you and your band mates. 🙏⚡🙏
TheHillcityhobo me and my pup do the same thing 🥰
me and mine too!
Wow I've really enjoyed the evolution from fireside jam to duo acoustic and now full band well produced with theme video. Love it !!! Would like to see your song stand up speak out be loud with full band. Seeing you both play a multitude of instruments in different genres I really appreciate knowing you could just play using techniques difficult for most but instead allow for feeling and other musicians to bring your music and covers to life. Mixing songs and videos from awesome duets to Orchestrating and being just a member of the band.
I'm rereading Someplace to be Flying by Charles deLint. One of the characters sings a snippet of this tune. I hadn't heard it when I first read the book, but I was practically jumping up and down when I recognized it this time.
so much fun and beauty!!
Wonderful stuff! I love it!!!
Loving your stuff. Thank you
Love it.
Much love lovely humans!❤️❤️
Great video! Congratulations on your new album and you wonderful tour!
Love it
So much energy.
There was an Irish band, Train to Sligo, introduced me to this song many years ago. Beautifully done!
Love This !!!
Beautiful.
