“Colorado singer-songwriter Emily Scott Robinson mixes folk and country with gorgeous,
clear-eyed examinations of faith, hope and regret.” — NPR

On her third album with Oh Boy Records, and her fifth since beginning her career a decade ago,
Emily Scott Robinson once again unveils her mastery as a performer and storyteller. With her
2026 release Appalachia — recorded at Dreamland Recording Studios with Grammy-nominated
producer Josh Kaufman — Robinson opens herself up to experimentation and sings in her
crystal-clear voice about resilience, love, grief and hope.
Robinson’s talent is no surprise to the music industry — she’s now a veteran touring artist, both
at home and abroad. Her records Traveling Mercies (2019) and American Siren (2021) each
landed high on Rolling Stone’s “Best Country and Americana Albums” and Stereogum’s “10 Best
Country Albums” year-end lists. She’s been lauded by the Washington Post, Billboard, American
Songwriter and No Depression, and earned the 19th spot on NPR’s “100 Best Songs of 2021”
with her song “Let ‘Em Burn.”
It was her 2020 release “The Time for Flowers,” an anthem of hope recorded at home in the
midst of the global pandemic, that caught the attention of Oh Boy Records, the independent
label founded by John Prine in 1981. Robinson jumped at the opportunity to join the
free-spirited and beloved record label carrying on her hero’s legacy.
Robinson believes the songs on Appalachia are the best she’s ever written — she sings about
her grandmother slipping into dementia, a cash-only saloon full of characters, and gratitude for
life, despite its hardships. The album features a duet with Grammy winner John Paul White that
celebrates the kind of love that comes with scars and age, and a hymn for anyone who’s ever
failed or fallen short.
“There’s this thing I do with every record I make,” she says. “I knit a prayer into it, and I ask for
all these songs to find their way to everyone who needs them. I ask these songs to be of service,
to help people find and experience joy.”
