Jackson Cunningham & Friends at Doughton Park/The Bluffs
Milepost Music presents Jackson Cunningham & Friends
Sunday, Sept. 8, 2-4 p.m.
Doughton Park/The Bluffs
Cunningham is a luthier and old-time musician. Family ties and a love for bluegrass and country music led him to move from Oregon to Southwest Virginia in 2005. There he began building instruments full-time and playing toe-tapping, foot-stomping old-time music with his band, Nobody’s Business.
About Doughton Park/The Bluffs, Milepost 241, Laurel Springs, N.C.
Appalachian history comes to life among the ridgetop meadows and steep mountainsides of Doughton Park. Hike some of the 30 miles of trails here or visit Brinegar Cabin, a well-preserved piece of early mountain life. Doughton Park is also home to the iconic Bluffs Restaurant, which has welcomed generations of travelers to the Blue Ridge Parkway for more than 60 years. Milepost Music concerts are held the second and fourth Sunday of the month in the picnic area across the street from the Bluffs Restaurant.
