Description:
The Floyd Country Store hosts an Old Time Country Dance featuring the music of The Dry Hill Draggers on Saturday, June 15th.

The Floyd Country Store is famous for old time dancing, and we feel truly honored that some of the great Appalachian old time bands love to play on our stage. One of our regular Friday Night bands is The Dry Hill Draggers of Franklin County. They started with banjo player Jimmy Boyd and his brother, Billy Boyd in 1981. The group has persevered even as some members have passed on. They are popular performers at the Blue Ridge Folklife Festival every year and the Galax Fiddle’s Convention with awards in the Old Time Band category.

When they strike up the music this Saturday night the dance floor will start to hum. There will be flat footing, clogging, two stepping and some square dances. Get up and join in or just sit back and watch the high energy crowd while you listen to some of the finest heritage mountain music around.

Tickets for the Old Time Country Dance are $8 and are available at the door.
