North Carolina music and musicians have influenced and been influenced by musicians around the world for centuries, and this season, we’re celebrating some of the musicians and music traditions that have inspired and been inspired by North Carolina music. This year’s Down Home Concerts will include programs by award-winning bluegrass band The Gibson Brothers (Oct. 30), NC-based roots music trailblazers The Kruger Brothers (Jan. 9, 2016), An Evening with Peter Yarrow (of Peter, Paul, & Mary) (Jan. 22, 2016), NC’s own renegade traditionalists Mipso (Jan. 29, 2016), and Irish band I Draw Slow (Feb. 26, 2016). Plus, PineCone teams up again with the North Carolina Arts Council this year to bring you the North Carolina Heritage Awards Ceremony (May 25, 2016), which will once again honor some of our state’s masters of traditional arts.
