Rosalie Sorrels with Cowboy Poets Wendy Brown-Barry, Mick Vernon, and John Silveira

Rosalie Sorrels is considered a matriarch of American folk music. She began her public career as a singer and collector of traditional folksongs in the late 1950s. During the early 1960s she left her husband and began traveling and performing at music festivals and clubs throughout the United States. Nanci Griffith chronicled this aspect of Rosalie's life with her song "Ford Econoline." Currently "retired," she still performs in select concerts and festivals. Her career of social activism, storytelling, teaching, learning, songwriting, collecting folk songs, performing, and recording has spanned six decades.
