During this week the musical genre of bluegrass will be examined. This style of music is very prevalent in Appalachian culture and has generated a major field of study at East Tennessee State University. Each day this author will spend time listening to the popular bluegrass music in addition to seeking out different live shows that are held in the local community.
Bristol, Virginia is considered the birthplace of country music and is said to have its roots in bluegrass. A trip to the country music museum will be completed to extend the research efforts.
Ive been to the Country Music Museum and it is pretty neat!
