Coming up on the Pickin' Porch
Show... |
The Pickin' Porch Show is a weekly two hour Bluegrass
and Old-Time music show hosted by "Your Bluegrass Buddy"
Tim White.
These wonderful performances feature the very best singers,
musicians and groups to be found anywhere, and most of them hail
from right here in the Birthplace of Country Music region! The mission of the
Pickin'
Porch is to honor the region's deep musical roots and to promote
Bluegrass and Old-Time music here and around the world.
We invite you to join us every Thursday night at 7:00 PM. All
Pickin' Porch shows are performed live at the Comfort Systems USA Performance Center in the Bristol Mall. Admission is free, but an
optional donation of $4 per person is greatly appreciated.
If you're unable to enjoy one of our shows in person, you can
always catch it on one of the fine
cable
television channels throughout the Birthplace of Country Music
region that broadcast it each week!

Tim White returned to "the porch" this week and began
the show with a few announcements. He reminded everyone
about the special gospel concert at the
Carter Fold on November 16, 2008 and that you can watch
the Carter Fold performances on the internet at
www.carterfoldshow.com. Tim updated everyone on the
renovation work being completed on our new Song of the
Mountains Museum. Check back for details on our Grand
Opening plans. |
