The Floyd Country Store presents Music of Our Mountains Launch Event with live music and stories on Saturday, April 23, 2022.
Join us for an exploration of the Music of Our Mountains, as we survey the stories of people, places, tunes, and roots that have informed this region’s heritage. Enjoy music and stories from Kinney Rorrer, Wayne Martin, Jackson Cunningham, Trevor McKenzie, Martha Spencer, Corbin Hayslett, Mac Traynham, Andy Buckman and Hunter Holmes.
In 2020, the Handmade Music School (HMS) received a small grant from the Virginia Humanities to create a digital archive and story map to explore and celebrate the journey of the people, places, tunes and roots of music in the Blue Ridge Plateau. Though the pandemic created challenges the HMS team is ready to launch the first chapters of the Music of our Mountains project. We have asked an incredible line up of scholars and musicians to help us present the project as Handmade Music School seeks additional funding to take the project to the next level.
This is a free event with donations accepted to support the project.
