Folk Alliance Region Midwest: "Old-Time Music: Present-Future-Past"

Presenters: Dom Flemons, Rina Rossi, Micah Ling, Ruby John, Joe Johnson
Old-time music is a complex genre within the folk music sphere, existing at the crossing of tradition, innovation, community, and cultural heritage. In this session join old-time musicians, researchers, and live music presenters for a roundtable discussion on what drew them to old time music, what makes old-time spaces special in their experience, barriers to participation that exist in these spaces, and strategies and initiatives that are working to break these barriers down.
