Thread Name: Origins: Music of Appalachia
Subject: RE: Origins: Music of Appalachia
I have travelled the "Crooked Road" and I have been honoured to have participated in some jam sessions!
My native island of Cape Breton lies where the northern Appalachians reach out into the Atlantic Ocean and the inhabitants share a similar ethnic heritage. The similarity of the music has survived the passing years and the Blue Ridge feels very much like home!
