The JAM (Junior Appalachian Musicians) program from Galax, VA are my featured guests this morning. Last weekend, December 10 2022 was the traditional Appalachian Christmas Festival in downtown Galax, VA. Elementary age kids stood bundled in their heaviest coats and mittens around a couple of mics singing and playing the old time and bluegrass music from Appalachian past, and inevitably Appalachia’s future.

Appalachian Vibes is brought to you by Galax Tourism. Made possible by Virginia is for Lovers. Galax Tourism, “Building Our Future While Celebrating Our Past”  You can learn more about Galax at https://visitgalax.com/
