The Crooked Road — Virginia's Heritage Music Trail

From the Blue Ridge Mountains to the Coalfields
region, Southwest Virginia is blessed 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.

Old time mountain music, bluegrass, and gospel
can be enjoyed all year long and several museums
are devoted to showcasing the area's rich musical
heritage.

The Crooked Road winds through the ruggedly
beautiful Appalachian Mountains and leads you to
the major hotspots of old time mountain music,
country music, and bluegrass. Alive and kickin' for
today's fans, these venues preserve and celebrate
musical traditions passed down through
generations. Annual festivals, weekly concerts,
radio shows, and jam sessions ring out to large
audiences and intimate gatherings. Please visit the
Crooked Road website to plan your trip to coincide
with the current entertainment events.
