Call it retro, hillbilly, bluegrass or rockabilly, the group strives for something Kody simply calls dern good entertainment. Deeply rooted in North American folk music, Norris has crafted a performance that harkens back and tips a hat to the traditions created by Bill Monroe, Jimmy Martin's showmanship, the Stanley Brothers' harmonies, performances of the Grand Ole Opry and a bit of Vaudeville. Top notch picking is center stage, but humor and visual flash are part of the entertaining package. Always clad in colorful, tailored suits adorned with rhinestones, ties, classic hats and ornate boots, the band earns its moniker as a show. The brand is traditional, clean cut, acoustic and always entertaining.

This program will be one part lecture, one part demonstration, and one part memoir.
Percussive dance exists in musical traditions around the world. The dancer will use the ball of their toe, heel, or whole foot to strike the ground on the downbeat of the rhythm as a way to accompany musicians and keep the beat. The Appalachian Mountain Region is home to many distinct forms of percussive dance and this program will focus on flatfoot dancing in the style of Willard C Watson Sr (1905-1995) and the Precision Clogging Steps of the Green Grass Cloggers (1971-Present).
The presentation will be led by North Carolina Appalachian Folklife Apprenticeship Team, Rodney Sutton, and Willard C. Watson III.

part of the Boone DOCS film series
“Lily Topples the World†is also free, in-person screening on the BOONE DOCS Series
at 4 p.m. on Sunday, April 3 and is followed by a post-show Q&A with the filmmakers. It
follows 20-year-old sensation Lily Hevesh, the world’s most acclaimed domino toppler
and the only girl in her field, as she rises as an artist, role model, and young woman.
Filmed for over three years across countless cities and featuring appearances by Jimmy
Fallon, Katy Perry, Will Smith, YouTuber Casey Neistat, and a steady stream of Gen-Z
creators, “Lily Topples the World†is a coming-of-age story cloaked within a unique
portrait of an artist, a story of how passion and artistry can make dreams come true, and
an unlikely American tale of a quiet Chinese adoptee who transforms into a global artistic
force with over one billion YouTube views.
According to Slash/Film, a critical review compendium, “Lily Topples the World†is "An
undeniable crowd pleaser! It’s just the kind of unbridled optimism one might seek out after
a year marred by despair, delivered by a startling bright ball of sunshine."
