Weirs and Magic Tuber Stringband- The Crozet Tunnel

Two of North Carolina’s most adventurous interpreters of Old Time tradition, Weirs and Magic Tuber Stringband, join for a collaboration that turns ancestral myth and local instrumentation into something both ancient and unearthly. Recorded in the darkness of a mile-long, abandoned railroad tunnel in Virginia’s Shenandoah Valley, their droning string composition reverberate off stone and earth, echoing into the depths.
