The 12th annual Clinch Mountain Music Fest will be held in Gate City, VA on June 16 & 17, 2017. The bluegrass music venue is one of the featured festivals during the Crooked Road’s Mountains of Music Homecoming.
Mountains of Music Homecoming is scheduled from June 9-17 at venues along the 330-mile Crooked Road, Virginia’s Heritage Music Trail in Southwest Virginia. The nine-day festival showcases regional music, food and culture.
