Another source of information for this months Bluegrass celibration...
You’re listening to Podcast Appalachia. I’m John Norris Brown.
Today’s episode is based on a suggestion I received from a listener known as the Vol Abroad, who maintains an interesting blog about her life in England at thevolabroad.blogspot.com. She requested an episode on Appalachian music, and the influence it has had on various genres. Well, I hope you enjoy this episode!

ASHEVILLE --
Drive the Blue Ridge Parkway and you see them from the road, the cabins, barns and sheds distinctive to southern Appalachian Mountains.Drawing on such local features -- sheltering overhangs, peaked roofs, wooden trusses -- architects charged with designing a new visitors center for the parkway came up with a large, open structure that seems at home in the mountains.
