It is sponsored by Friends of the Cumberland Trail.
Crossing the Cumberlands will be an evening of traditional and creative music representative of Tennessee’s last two centuries. Some of the performances will be by descendants of the Appalachian families who have kept this culture alive. There will also be a tribute to the late Fletcher Bright.
