Thank you for joining us in exploring the songs and stories that are found \u201cJust off the Wilderness Road\u201d.  The intent of this project is to be a conversation starter about people, places and events that have occurred throughout time, in the three state region surrounding the Cumberland Gap.  Histories and stories are rich in these mountains.  There are many spectacular views to be seen.  There are many events to attend.  There are many personalities to get acquainted with.  The Cumberland Gap Region is one of the finest places in the world and we want you to explore it to the fullest.  <\/p>\n\n\n\n

We have worked very diligently from early 2018 through the spring of 2021 to  research, write the songs, collect performers, record, mix, and compile the liner notes.  From the cover art to the last note played, this album is being brought to you by the sons and daughters of the Cumberland Gap region.  It is a product of us.  We hope you enjoy hearing it as much as we have enjoyed making it.      <\/p>\n\n\n\n
