Rural Roots Music Festival to Come to Fremont, Nebraska, 10/4-6
by Tyler Peterson - Sep 8, 2013

'It's an amazing world we live in today,' says Bob Everhart, President of the National Traditional Country Music Assn. 'It's thrilling to see some prehistoric creatures return to planet earth,' Everhart said in a recent radio interview, 'but more importantly to me is the struggle to keep our old-time rural music alive. Nebraska is one of the last states in America that makes an attempt at keeping their cultural heritage a part of the present. Early 'country' music was directly from the soil, from the real 'country' if you will. Country music we hear today is not really 'country' music, it's just a pale imitation of the real thing. Originally from 'rural' America, so-called country music today has fallen into the hands of whoever has the most money. Still, the roots from whence it came is very important, especially to Nebraskans. The 'rural' music of the Great Plains tells the tales of early life on the prairie, it tells stories of homesteading and pioneering. So, where are the stories about the groundbreaking activities of our ancestors? What happened to the songs of our early rural music makers?'
