When

Come with us to experience the beginnings of Bluegrass music and follow its evolution as it traveled across the ocean and settled in the Appalachian Mountains. This program will track the origin of this style of music back to its roots and the influence the Scottish, Irish, and English pioneers who settled along the Appalachian Mountains had on it. The Bluegrass band, the "Kitchen Pickers", will play representative songs applicable to our area.
