Levi Foster

Levi Foster’s second full-length album, Appalachian Funk Tree, is the sound of an artist who seems increasingly confident letting genres overlap, collide, and take the music to new branches. Produced by Shooter Jennings at the legendary Sunset Sound in Hollywood, the record pulls together Appalachian storytelling, bluegrass, blues, psychedelia, funk, country and rock ’n’ roll, while also taking on distinctly modern questions, including our rapidly changing relationship with AI. Christine spoke with Levi about the new album, which comes out this Friday, October 9th.

Christine Davis was raised in NJ but is an honorary Midwesterner living in the Chicago area. She’s an acupuncturist by day, but there’s always music playing in her head. Live music brings her a thrill like no other, but she also listens to her favorite albums over and over (and over). A music historian at heart, she loves to find the threads that connect pieces, artists, genres, and fans together. She’s the wife of a musician, mom to two of the best humans on earth, and amateur lap steel guitarist.
