Down Home and Outback: the Regional Music Archives
Saturday May 29, 2010 from 10:00am - 5:00pm
Taubman Museum of Art
110 Salem Ave Se
Roanoke, Virginia 24011 Get Directions
Guitar flat-picker extraordinaire Scott Fore is creating an on-going audio/video archive and performance series that features a range of noteworthy musicians in various parts of this region who have made significant contributions to the lexicon of American Roots music. These sought-after musicians live in work in places as diverse as the area itself -- from the Tidewater and coastal plains to the Piedmont and Mountain states of the Mid-Atlantic and South -- from peaks to shore. Taking shape in a variety of forms, the archive is meant to record and perhaps re-introduce audiences to the rich legacy of music that surrounds us, allowing us to learn more about what makes these musicians do what they do best and celebrate their unique gifts. The aim of this project is to locate and identify those unique qualities that characterize these individuals as artists as opposed to mere musical technicians.
