Its time for a Foggy Mountain Breakdown!

Posted on July 21st, 2016

Contemporary bluegrass has its origins in the music and songs brought by the English, Irish and Scottish immigrants to this country in the 1600s. Explore Oxford Music Online for a wealth of information on bluegrass and its most famous creators and performers. Library Staff member Kathy Kuhlig-Carter curated these CDs, books and DVDs on display on the 4000 level near the Library Technology Services desk. If you can’t get here right away, listen to Flatt and Scruggs to whet your appetite for that high lonesome sound.
