Performing at the Mountain Dance and Folk Festival & Shindig on the Green: |
|
Due to their popularity, Shindig on the Green and
Mountain Dance and Folk Festival has in the past received a vast volume
of unsolicited media kits and recordings from artists and agents. The
Folk Heritage Committee lacks the staff to respond to these materials
and encourages you to save your postage and not send these materials.
Shindig and Festival artists originate primarily from the local region
and most artists are introduced to event organizers through their
participation in Shindig on the Green. Thank you.

In keeping with the objective to preserve and showcase our wonderful Southern Appalachian heritage, the Folk Heritage Committee desires that the type of music, dance and storytelling presented at the Mountain Dance and Folk Festival and Shindig on the Green be a true representation of this heritage.
The
Mountain Dance and Folk Festival programming committee considers only
traditional musicians and dancers
that have supported us
at Shindig and fundraisers. Programming meetings usually take place
in February and March. Performers are invited to participate by the end of
April. There is no application for performance. If you are a traditional
performer or group, and wish to be considered, send an introduction letter
and a CD, an audio or video tape to the address below.
The Folk Heritage Committee is grateful for the generosity of all Shindig on the Green and Mountain Dance and Folk Festival performers. |
