Join us at the Floyd Country Store us as we pair two of our favorite things in the world, music and food, in a special series of monthly events. This month’s Dinner & A Show features Joe Troop & Larry Bellorin performing alongside with a delicious meal curated by the Cafe staff at Floyd Country Store!

Larry Bellorín & Joe Troop were destined to make music together. Larry hails from Monagas, Venezuela and is a legend of Llanera music. Joe is from North Carolina and is a GRAMMY-nominated bluegrass and old-time musician. Larry was forced into exile and is an asylum seeker in North Carolina. Joe, after a decade in South America, got stranded back in his stomping grounds in the pandemic. Larry has been forced to work construction to make ends meet. Joe's acclaimed "latingrass" band Che Apalache was forced into hiatus, and he shifted into action working with asylum seeking migrants.

Currently based in the Triangle of North Carolina, both men are versatile multi-instrumentalists and singer-songwriters on a mission to show that music has no borders. As a duo they perform a fusion of Venezuelan and Appalachian folk music on harp, banjo, cuatro, fiddle, and whatever else they decide to throw in the van.

The program they are offering features a distinct blend of their musical inheritances and traditions, as well as storytelling about the ways that music and social movements coalesce.
