This talk will go along with The Way We Worked\, our current special exhibit on display at the museum through January 23. René Rodgers\, Erika Barker\, and Scotty Almany will discuss how music is interwoven throughout the history of America’s workforce culture. \nWorkers’ anthems\, union movement songs\, stories of hard labor and tragedy\, and how music influences workflow and productivity will be thoughtfully examined and presented by our staff. We look forward to sharing this exploration of music and work with our virtual audience! \nThe Way We Worked explores how work became such a central element in American culture by tracing the many changes that affected the workforce and work environments over the past 150 years. The diversity of the American workforce is one of its strengths\, providing an opportunity to explore how people of all races and ethnicities identified commonalities and worked to knock down barriers in the professional world. The exhibition shows how we identify with work – as individuals and as communities. The Way We Worked\, an exhibition created by the National Archives\, is adapted for travel by the Smithsonian Institution Traveling Exhibition Service and made possible with the generous support of the United States Congress. \nThe Birthplace of Country Music Museum (an Affiliate of the Smithsonian Institution) has created a supplementary display related to work in Bristol and the surrounding region from major manufacturing and resource extraction to retail\, food services\, farming\, local industry\, and the local newspaper. \nScotty Almany is the Digital Media\, Programming & Exhibit Logistics Manager at the Birthplace of Country Music Museum. He received his Master’s in Museum Studies from John Hopkins University\, and he has worked at the museum since it opened in 2014. He is a musician\, a Radio Bristol DJ\, and a hockey fanatic. Erika Barker is the Curatorial Manager at the museum. She did a Master’s in Historical Administration from Eastern Illinois University\, and she has been at the museum since 2017.

She loves to read\, hike with her dog Pippa\, and get creative with her bullet journal.\nThe event is free\, but pre-registration is required.

SUMMARY:Appalachia & Scottish Folk Songs
DESCRIPTION:Virtual Speaker Series\nAppalachia and Scottish Folk Songs\nwith Musician Jennifer Licko\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nJOIN US ON\nNovember 9 | 7:00pm\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nFREE  |  PRE-REGISTRATION REQUIRED\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nRegister Now\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nAppalachia & Scottish Folk Songs\n\n\n\nJoin us on Tuesday\, November 9\, 7:00pm for our next Virtual Speaker Series with musician and historian Jennifer Licko. Scottish settlers established themselves in the Appalachian region of several states\, including North Carolina\, Virginia\, Tennessee\, Kentucky and West Virginia. In these isolated areas\, the old songs of love\, loss\, murder\, ghosts\, and earlier times were passed down by oral tradition\, expressing timeless themes and ties to the past. Over time the melodies and words changed creating variations that are still sung today. Licko\, a North Carolina native\, will be sharing her observations on variants and versions of Scottish folk songs that exist in Appalachia.Awarded “Celtic Album of the Year” by Celtic Music Radio and nomination for “Trad Album of the Year” by TradConnect\, Jennifer Licko has a strong relationship with the music that traveled over with the Scottish settlers. \nSpending her youth as a competitive Scottish Highland Dancer encouraged her interest and love for the Scottish traditions. Jennifer is an exceptional vocalist and multi-instrumentalist who plays the piano\, guitar\, and bodhrán (Irish drum). After living almost a decade in Scotland and Ireland\, Jennifer realized the strong similarities between Scotland and North Carolina…and her music began to branch out into a genre that honors those connections. \n“I believe that the music needs to connect with the audience through our shared emotions and experiences for us all to feel that which can only be experienced through music.” \nJennifer works as a performer\, educator\, and advocate for cultural inclusion in education. She founded and operates the non-profit Highland Echoes carrying out three large-scale projects to support the mission of cultivating awareness and preservation of Scottish culture\, she runs The Cultural Classroom providing resources and support for teachers\, and she has her own podcast called Respecting Diversity in the Class. \nJennifer is currently living in Brazil as an ex-pat\, raising two trilingual and extremely energetic boys\, and a very sweet white lab named Bailey. In her free time\, she enjoys running and being by the ocean in any capacity. Probably not important to a professional bio\, but Jennifer’s favorite color is aqua\, her favorite food is mint chocolate chip Ice cream (yep\, that’s real food)\, and her Starbucks choice is a grande Americano. \nFor more information about Jennifer’s music and work\, check out her website.\nThe event is free\, but pre-registration is required.

SUMMARY:Bristol Rhythm & Roots Reunion
DESCRIPTION:Bristol Rhythm & Roots Reunion celebrates 20 years in Historic Downtown Bristol\, Virginia-Tennessee September 10-12\, 2021. Honoring the legacy of the 1927 Bristol Sessions\, which included the first recordings of The Carter Family and Jimmie Rodgers and ushered country music into the mainstream\, Bristol Rhythm digs deep into the roots of Appalachian music while lifting its branches to new heights. The festival offers more than 100 acts of live music on more than a dozen stages along State Street – from traditional bluegrass and classic country to Americana and indie rock. \nDue to the vast influence of the 1927 Bristol Sessions\, Bristol has been designated by Congress as “the birthplace of country music” and is home to the Birthplace of Country Music Museum\, an affiliate of the Smithsonian Institution. Conveniently located just outside festival gates\, the museum tells the story of the 1927 Bristol Session through beautiful film experiences\, interactive touch screen exhibits\, and much more. We highly recommend visiting the museum while you’re attending the festival! \nFor more information about festival lineup and the museum\, visit our website.

Her blues classroom was on the porch of her uncle’s house where she heard guitar and harmonica playing. Her first professional engagement came in the early 1980s when she was asked to perform at a local club where she was attending college. “I had three days to find three musicians and put together 30 songs\,” she said. “They loved me – the rest is history because I’ve been singing the Blues ever since.” \nFor years\, Pat sang in New Orleans six nights a week\, performing at a wide array of venues including the House of Blues\, until Katrina destroyed her home. She relocated to North Carolina and has recently started touring with the Music Maker Blues Revue. During her performances\, “Mother Blues” unfurls the tapestry of her life experiences to her audience in soulful words and music.  She shares the mettle\, pathos and ocean-deep compassion of the famous female blues singers she idolizes – women like Billie Holiday\, Koko Taylor and Etta James. \nPat “Mother Blues” Cohen is a dramatic and exotic performer whose talent should not be overlooked.\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n

SUMMARY:Virtual Speaker Series - Unlikely Angel: The Songs of Dolly Parton
DESCRIPTION:Join the Birthplace of Country Music Museum on Tuesday\, April 6\, 7:00pm for a conversation with author Lydia R. Hamessley about her book Unlikely Angel: The Songs of Dolly Parton. Dolly Parton’s success as a performer and pop culture phenomenon has overshadowed her achievements as a songwriter. But she sees herself as a songwriter first\, and with good reason. Parton’s compositions like “I Will Always Love You” and “Jolene” have become American standards with an impact far beyond country music. Hamessley will share insights into the impact of Parton’s background on her songs; the ways that those songs have explored women’s lives\, poverty\, love and heartbreak; and the genius and creativity of Parton’s songwriting. \nLydia Hamessley is Professor of Music at Hamilton College (Clinton\, NY) where she teaches courses in country music\, medieval and Renaissance music\, music in film\, and world music. She received her Ph.D. in musicology from the University of Minnesota in 1991. She writes on old-time and bluegrass music\, with an emphasis on women and Southern Appalachia. She has also written about the banjo in nineteenth-century America; Appalachian murder ballads; and Peggy Seeger. She appeared in the BBC2 documentary Dolly Parton: Here I Am\, which is currently available on Netflix. She is also a clawhammer banjo player. \n“Unlikely Angel: The Songs of Dolly Parton” is free and open to the public\, but please register to attend.

Parton’s compositions like “I Will Always Love You” and “Jolene” have become American standards with an impact far beyond country music. Hamessley will share insights into the impact of Parton’s background on her songs; the ways that those songs have explored women’s lives\, poverty\, love and heartbreak; and the genius and creativity of Parton’s songwriting. \nThis program is free and open to the public\, but you must pre-register to receive the Zoom link. \n \n\n\n\nPRE-REGISTER HERE\n\n\n\n  \nAnd many\, many more!! \n

SUMMARY:Women of Early Country Music
DESCRIPTION:Before Coal Miner’s Daughters and Many-Colored Coats: Pioneering Women in Country Music\nJoin us on Tuesday\, February 2 for a fascinating talk with Bailey George about the women who made their mark on early country music. \nTraditionally\, the role and widespread recognition of women in country music has been relegated to a handful of “superstars” who rose to fame in the 1960s and 1970s\, but female country artists have been producing records since the beginnings of country music recording. The impact of these pioneering artists has been somewhat overshadowed by flashier\, pop-oriented female artists in recent years\, but without these trailblazing recordings\, the country music industry as we know it would not exist. \nWith this talk\, Bailey George will take a look at some of the forgotten female artists\, musicians\, writers\, and performers from days long before there were coal miner’s daughters or many-colored coats. \nFree and open to the public\, but pre-registration is required.

SUMMARY:Special Exhibit - Honky Tonk: Portrait of Country Music 1972-1981
DESCRIPTION:In the 1970s\, photographer Henry Horenstein shot album covers for upstart bluegrass label Rounder Records. But in his off-hours\, he soon became unofficial photographer to the culture of country musicians great and small\, and their dedicated fans. It’s a world that looks quite a bit like country songs sound: full of hard-working operators and lonely dreamers\, half-full glasses and scorpion belt buckles\, and a few tall hats\, boots\, and bottles as well. It’s the world of the honky tonk. \nA candid\, affectionate glimpse into the real country music scene as it was performed and lived\, Honky Tonk: Portraits of Country Music\, 1972—1981 is a parade through the early years of future great performers like Dolly Parton and Del McCoury\, and already established legends like Mother Maybelle Carter and Don Stover. It is a time capsule of an important era in country music set within family music parks and music festivals\, the Grand Ole Opry\, and Nashville’s Tootsies and other well-loved honky tonks. Horenstein’s lively portraits of the community preserve the scene where musicians and fans\, cowboys and townies\, converged to step out\, strum\, and strut their stuff.

SUMMARY:Radio Bristol Book Club
DESCRIPTION:Full-tilt\, hardcore\, down-home\, and groundbreaking\, the women of country music speak volumes with every song. From Maybelle Carter to Dolly Parton\, k.d. lang to Taylor Swift—these artists provided pivot points\, truths\, and doses of courage for women writers at every stage of their lives. Whether it’s Rosanne Cash eulogizing June Carter Cash or a seventeen-year-old Taylor Swift considering the golden glimmer of another precocious superstar\, Brenda Lee\, it’s the humanity beneath the music that resonates. \nHere are deeply personal essays from award-winning writers on femme fatales\, feminists\, groundbreakers\, and truth tellers. Acclaimed historian Holly George Warren captures the spark of the rockabilly sensation Wanda Jackson; Entertainment Weekly‘s Madison Vain considers Loretta Lynn’s girl-power anthem “The Pill”; and rocker Grace Potter embraces Linda Ronstadt’s unabashed visual and musical influence. Patty Griffin acts like a balm on a post-9/11 survivor on the run; Emmylou Harris offers a gateway through paralyzing grief; and Lucinda Williams proves that greatness is where you find it. \nPart history\, part confessional\, and part celebration of country\, Americana\, bluegrass\, and the women who make them\, Woman Walk the Line is a very personal collection of essays from some of America’s most intriguing women writers. It speaks to the ways in which artists mark our lives at different ages and in various states of grace and imperfection—and ultimately how music transforms not just the person making it\, but also the listener. \nTune in to Radio Bristol on Thursday\, November 19\, 11:00 a.m. for the Radio Bristol Book Club discussion of Woman Walk the Line\, followed by a conversation with editor Holly Gleason.
