  Like a step back in time, Yonder Hollow offered me a welcome reprieve from the modern world. Inside the shell of an old department store in historic Rockwood, Tennessee I found a place where I could experience some of the finest Americana music in the U.S. On a recent night I enjoyed watching and listening to a solo artist in the style of Johnny Cash, a nice duo and several fantastic bluegrass bands. There was plenty of seating and for a mere $5 entry fee, I was able to get a great seat in front of the stage even though I showed up as the event started. A concession stand kept me full on soda, coffee, popcorn and hot dogs. The show seems to be run by a local radio station (WYHM 580 AM) and appears to only invite artists who play bluegrass and other Americana (but mostly bluegrass). The performance is recorded for the radio station, which also plays bluegrass. I can't believe someone puts all this effort into organizing something like this! I had a great time and will be stopping back soon, I hope.
  
  By the way, a block away is the Live and Let Live drugstore/soda fountain. I enjoyed some ice cream on my short walk to the Yonder Hollow venue.
