Rising Appalachia, an American folk music group led by sisters Leah Song and Chloe Smith, was formed in 2005. The duo's first album, Leah & Chloe, recorded in Atlanta, Georgia, gained unexpected support, leading to the establishment of Rising Appalachia as a band. In 2007, they released their second album, Scale Down. The group temporarily changed their name to R.I.S.E. and released the live album Evolutions in Sound: Live in 2008. They reverted to Rising Appalachia in 2010 with the release of The Sails Of Self, which featured new members Biko Casini and David Brown. The band's fourth studio album, Filthy Dirty South, was funded through Kickstarter and released in 2012.
