It’s an immersive\, interactive museum with amazing sights and sounds!\n\nPanels focus on topics such as the development of the modern recording industry and the artists who recorded at the Bristol Sessions\, including Ernest V. Stoneman\, Alfred G. Karnes\, El Watson\, The Carter Family\, and Jimmie Rodgers. The Bristol Sessions were the first recordings of The Carter Family and Jimmie Rodgers\, and they quickly became stars in the emerging “hillbilly” music industry. A timeline of audio technology introduces you to the different ways to produce and listen to music\, and the Variety & Voice gallery highlights the history and beauty of the iconic instruments that have created the recognizable sounds of country music. \nVisiting the core exhibits at the Birthplace of Country Music Museum is not a passive experience – we want you to explore the music through a variety of interactive and immersive experiences. Sound surrounds you throughout your visit. You can delve into local history to set the scene for the Bristol Sessions story\, and explore the sounds of the Sessions through clips of all of the songs issued by Victor Records from the Bristol recordings. In other parts of the gallery\, you can listen to the ways later musicians from Lead Belly to Nirvana have arranged some of these classic songs\, give those tunes new sounds at the mixing stations\, and belt out a song with family\, friends and fellow visitors at the sing-along station! \nYou can also engage in multiple film and theater experiences\, beginning with the Orientation Theater film “Bound to Bristol.” In the Greasy Strings Theater\, we explore the philosophy and techniques behind the playing of the 1927 Bristol Sessions recordings. You can take a pew in our small chapel to hear local gospel groups speak and sing about how faith has shaped music and our connection to it. The Immersion Theater makes you part of “the unbroken circle” – and gives you space to dance! Several shorter films explore oral histories of participants in the 1927 Bristol Sessions\, the career of Tennessee Ernie Ford\, and the impact of this music on TV and film. \n\nThe museum’s permanent exhibits won four awards at the 2015 Tennessee Association of Museums conference: Award of Excellence for Permanent Exhibits\, Award of Excellence for A/V – Mixing Station\, Award of Commendation for Chapel Film\, and the Past President’s Award of Excellence.

It can be accessed on 100.1 FM in the Bristol area\, or online at ListenRadioBristol.org and on Radio Bristol’s free mobile app. Viewers may also tune in to watch through Radio Bristol’s Facebook page. \n  \nAbout Fireside Collective \nA quintet who cheerfully disregard every kind of one-dimensional label that might be attached to their music\, Fireside Collective has been on a roll since emerging seven years ago from the fertile roots music scene of Asheville\, North Carolina. In quick order\, the progressive bluegrass group released its debut album\, won the 2016 Band Contest at MerleFest\, earned an International Bluegrass Music Association Momentum Band of the Year nomination and embarked on an ambitious touring schedule that’s earned an enthusiastic reception from traditional bluegrass to wide-ranging\, eclectic music festival audiences alike. \n​Blending the characteristic interplay of bluegrass instrumentation and harmonies with strong original material and exuberant energy\, Fireside Collective has drawn on folk\, blues\, funk and a wide variety of bluegrass sounds to create a distinctive body of work that’s all their own. \n  \nAbout Larry Bellorin and Joe Troop  \nLarry Bellorín & Joe Troop were destined to make music together. Larry hails from Monagas\, Venezuela and is a legend of Llanera music. Joe is from North Carolina and is a GRAMMY-nominated bluegrass and oldtime musician. Larry was forced into exile and is an asylum seeker in North Carolina. Joe\, after a decade in South America\, got stranded back in his stomping grounds in the pandemic. Larry works construction to make ends meet. Joe’s acclaimed “latingrass” band Che Apalache was forced into hiatus\, and he shifted into action working with asylum seeking migrants. \nCurrently based in the Triangle of North Carolina\, both men are versatile multi-instrumentalists and singer-songwriters on a mission to show that music has no borders. As a duo they perform a fusion of Venezuelan and Appalachian folk music on harp\, banjo\, cuatro\, fiddle\, guitar\, maracas and whatever else they decide to throw in the van. The program they offer features a distinct blend of their musical inheritances and traditions as well as storytelling about the ways that music and social movements coalesce. \n  \nAbout Bill and the Belles \nBill and the Belles is a Johnson City\, TN-based band known for combining a stringband format with their signature harmonies\, candid songwriting\, and pop sensibilities. Their delightfully deadpan new album\, Happy Again\, is full of life\, humor\, and tongue-in-cheek explorations of love and loss. Bill and the Belles is Kris Truelsen on guitar\, fiddler Kalia Yeagle\, banjo/banjo-uke player Aidan VanSuetendael\, and bassist Andrew Small. The group has a knack for saying sad things with a bit of an ironic smirk\, and anyone who’s been to one of their shows can attest that you leave feeling lighter and refreshed. This is a band that revels in the in-between: deeply engaged with the stringband tradition and eager to stretch those influences to a contemporary setting. A timeless place where Jimmie Rodgers and Phil Spector can overlap\, and a driving fiddle and banjo tune makes way for a sentimental parlor song. And while Bill and the Belles’ latest chapter offers a bigger\, moodier\, and more decade-ambiguous sound\, they maintain their status as the most refreshing stringband around. Visit the band’s website at BillandtheBelles.com for touring and more information.
