We are very excited that our June Block Party has been included in the Crooked Road’s Mountains of Music Homecoming. A nine-day celebration of Southwest Virginia’s heritage and music, The Crooked Road’s inaugural Mountains of Music Homecoming will take place June 12-20, in cities and towns across the 8,600-square-mile Crooked Road Region. Over 200 artists will perform 34 different Crooked Road Concerts. The Homecoming will feature over 260 additional cultural experiences presented by local communities and organizations highlighting the culture of scenic Southwest Virginia.
The Chamber of Commerce will be putting our best foot forward, June 18, 2015, as we host the Crooked Road Block Party, presented by Branch Highways. This block party will be like no other as we feature local bluegrass favorites Oh Brother Where Am I, opening up for the legendary Dry Hill Draggers. Oh Brother Where Am I features strong instrumentals and powerful vocals. Their material ranges from traditional bluegrass music as well as bluegrass covers of contemporary artists from the rock and pop genres. The Dry Hill Draggers are synonymous with old time music having delighted fans all over the world for over 30 years. They are both sure to get your toes tapping.
But the fun doesn’t stop there. Have you ever wondered what over 50 thousand dollars in inflatables looks like? Mike Gravely of Outdoor Entertainment LLC will have them set up here for the young and young at heart in the parking lot, at Stonewall Court, for free. That’s right no charge.
