Historic Songs of Appalachia and Old Time Fiddle Circle with Cosby and Tom

The Appalachian Mountains stretch from Georgia to Maine, and were considered the new frontier when settled by the Scots-Irish and Germans. These groups sought freedom from government and prejudice, as well as cheaper land. Their history is both charming and dark as they struggled to survive and bring their culture with them, especially their music! Program includes ten songs with interesting narrative, about one hour, for adults and teenagers. Bring your string instruments and join in after the program -- or just listen -- to an old time fiddle circle with Cosby!

This event is free thanks to the generous support of the Fulton County Board of Supervisors and County Historian's Office.
