Across the Blue Ridge is producing a special concert in conjunction with the exhibit Dorothea Lange's America at Reynolda House Museum of American Art in Winston-Salem, NC. Tickets are on sale now for this concert featuring American songster Dom Flemons; bluegrass pioneer Alice Gerrard, Virginia singer Kay Justice, Terri McMurray and me. We hope you can join us Saturday, October 6 at 3PM. Admission fee also gains you entrance to the stunning exhibition of Lange's photographs documenting Dust Bowl America.
Our concert, titled Hard Times & Hope, will include songs of the Dust Bowl migrations and songs of the Blue Ridge, connecting our region to the suffering, upheaval and ultimate optimism of the Depression era and today. We will produce a radio episode from the concert, and we hope you can join us for the live performance and the photo exhibition at Reynolda.
