POSTS STORIES REELS

Hi friends - we’re still gathering our pictures (and thoughts!) from an amazing week in Pineville for a full recap and update post. Suffice it to say that because of you — the fans, artists, vendors, organizers, and supporters — we’re more excited than ever to share this movie with the world, but whew, boy, do we have a lot of content to go through!

In the meantime, special thanks to our pal, @chris_barilla, who wrote a beautiful story about the @laurelcovemusicfestival for @people, and kindly included us! We’ve excerpted it here, and the link to the full article is in our bio.

Also in our bio are links to the ongoing charity auction and educational funding campaign. We can’t stress enough the importance of these initiatives to bring this movie, this story, this community, and this event to classrooms across the country, and enabling us to directly give back to the Appalachian community that fosters it. If you’re able to contribute — time, items, publicity, money, whatever — we’d truly appreciate it. Likewise, sharing this post and news about Where the Mountains Sing and the amazing team that executes, performs at, and enjoys the Laurel Cove Music Festival is just as helpful.

Thank you — we love you all! by @wherethemountainssing

Songs from the hills. Hymns for the heart.

This is Laurel Cove: a place where legendary performances happen on stage and off. A place full of natural beauty. A place where what unites us is much more powerful than what divides us. A place where folks show up as strangers and leave as family.
Please enjoy this first look at Where the Mountains Sing

Shareable link in bio and please stay tuned – there’s much more to follow.

Songs from the hills. Hymns from the heart. This is the story of the last real American music festival. 🎸🏔️

Where the Mountains Sing is coming in 2026.

Featuring Red Clay Strays, Wyatt Flores, Kaitlin Butts, Charles Wesley Godwin, 49 Winchester, Noeline Hoffman, Cole Chaney, Ole 60, Evan Honer, Kashus Culpepper, and more, this feature documentary traces Appalachia’s cultural history and explores its deep musical heritage – from front porch jams to Tyler Childers’ legendary Kickin’ It On The Creek – culminating deep in a shady mountain holler at Kentucky’s beloved Laurel Cove Music Festival, which embodies the region’s intrepid and community-focused spirit.

Y'all remember when Jason Scott & the High Heat damn near burned down the stage at LCMF? They do it everywhere they go -- who's seeing them soon? by @wherethemountainssing

@wherethemountainssing crew captured on disposable 35mm by…the crew lol. I’m so glad I decided to impulsively buy four of them before leaving to go capture @laurelcovemusicfestival | they feel like a time capsule of memories. by @wherethemountainssing
