Tickets for Feb. 6 Zoom performance at 7pm

A young, classical violinist and her folk-song-collector boyfriend escape their 2021 “long winter’s night” of quarantine in Brooklyn to the mountains of western North Carolina. They’re searching for some of Appalachian music’s sources, inspirations and influences, authentic and un-adulterated. The tunes are Old Time, Bluegrass and Country Blues fiddle, guitar, banjo and mountain dulcimer melodies from deep in the USA’s DNA, with songs like Down In The Valley, Green Corn, Blackberry Blossom, Sail Away Ladies and more. Their journey takes a surprising turn when they stumble upon exactly what they’ve been looking for — and all the unexpected complexity, discord, difficulty, heartbreak, joy, and strange new harmony that goes with him.
