Cumberland Music Tour

The Cumberland Music Tour was a 1988 concert series sampling the outstanding musical traditions of the Cumberland Plateau along the Tennessee-Kentucky line. A joint project of the Tennessee Arts Commission Folklife Program, the Southern Arts Federation and Bob Fulcher of TN State Parks, the tour took local musical masters to venues in southeastern states and East Coast. The tour program booklet features essays by Fulcher about the artists and their important Appalachian legacy.

Poster for The Cumberland Music Tour features bold yellow and orange text, tree illustrations, and a black-and-white photo of people by a car. Text highlights tough mountain music, flatfoot dancing, and ballads and stories.
