Contradance at Augustine School of Jackson.
Oldtime Sessions are a great way to learn traditional music and many of our members meet weekly at the IHOP here in Jackson for an impromptu Jam Session.
We do a number of events including tour groups that pass through our area looking for a taste of some Traditional Tennessee Music.
Gospel Music is certainly a huge part of oldtime music and we often provide traditional gospel music for revivals, homecomings, fall festivals, etc.
The older generation grew up with oldtime music so they naturally enjoy the old tunes.
One of our prime directives in conjunction with our mission statement preserve oldtime music is to record and document our areas oldtime musicians and their stories.
