The Blue Ridge Mountains are considered the birthplace of American folk music. English and Irish folk music (fiddles, dancing) combined with African rhythms (banjoes, drums) to create music known today as traditional/folk/bluegrass music. These hills are still producing amazing music, and are well worth a trip if you want to soak it all in. We stopped in at the Blue Ridge Music Center - an excellent museum which chronicles the musical history of the region. Anywho- this is my jam:
Greensky Bluegrass- Demons
