Via (sounds like sky) is the winner of the 2009 International/American Folk Alliance Songwriters Contest,( Mountain Stage), and has picked up MerleFest’s Chris Austin Songwriter prize three times. Via’s songs are real: they tell the true stories of love gone wrong, living off the land, of hard times and good times.
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.
