Bluegrass fiddler, (1933-2024)
Bobby Hicks spent much of his life with a fiddle in hand and a song in his heart. Originally hailing from Catawba County in North Carolina, he called Western North Carolina home. He began his lifelong passion while growing up in a musical family.
Throughout the 1950s, he played with various bands, including Bill Monroe and His Blue Grass Boys. He later traveled with Judy Lynn and Ricky Skaggs and became an award-winning and internationally-known fiddler. Upon retirement, he could be found playing and teaching around Marshall, NC, making sure he could help others enjoy the music he loved so much.
Old-Time Musician
William Ritter is a triple threat! He is a musician, farmer–Western North Carolina born and raised–lover of southern Appalachia. He holds a MA in Appalachian Studies from Appalachian State University, and he’s been saving seeds for a long time. He plays the banjo, the fiddle and sings traditional ballads. He made the connection between old-time traditional music and heirloom seed saving while attending school at App State. Keepers of both traditions carry stories and memories in their work—more than just seeds and songs.

American guitar player, (1913–2006)
Baker is admired by thousands for her finger-picked style of blues guitar playing. Beginning at the early age of 3, she learned how to play guitar from her father. Over her lifetime, Baker became a master of the Piedmont Blues. She didn’t become a professional musician, however, until the age of 60. At the age of 78, she cut her first album. In 1991, she received a National Heritage Fellowship from the National Endowment for the Arts. Learn her story here.
Rare Bird Farm in the mountains of Madison County is an agricultural arts center that hosts performing arts, classes, workshops, and community events, all centered around the ideas of creativity, connection, and collaboration. While not a commercial farm, Rare Bird also raises animals, medicinal plants, and food. We spent some time with Mitchell Davis and Farrah Hoffmire or Rare Bird to learn more.
An intersection of the natural and musical heritage of WNC can be found in the high mountains. Red Spruce (picea rubens) is prominent at altitudes above 5,000 feet in the Southern Appalachians. It’s also one of the primary tonewoods used in traditional construction of mandolins and guitars. For this episode, we spent time with conservationist Marquette Crockett and luthier James Condino to learn more.
