About
Multi-instrumentalists Ross Wall and Lindsey Lester formed Rural Lester after moving from the plains of southern Alabama to the mountains of Western North Carolina. Burnt out from playing cover songs in college bars, the pair decided to take a step back from the mic and start taking in all of the rich mountain music their new home had to offer. Over the past few years, they have cultivated a new sound that marries their warm Alabama roots with their rowdy Asheville address. Their songs cut right to the heart, with the promise of a good toe-tappin' time.
