The Crooked Road: Virginia’s Heritage Music Trail Historical Markers
Old time mountain music, bluegrass, and gospel is from Appalachia, and in Virginia these roads on this trail are dotted with historic and contemporary music venues, musicians and fretted instrument makers. Historically isolated, the region retained its strong musical legacy by passing traditions down through musical families to an appreciative community. Many of these markers broadcast a short audio program to your car’s FM radio.
