In the twentieth century, Appalachian migrants seeking economic
opportunities relocated to southwestern Ohio, bringing their music
with them. Between 1947 and 1989, they created an internationally
renowned capital for the thriving bluegrass music genre, centered
on the industrial region of Cincinnati, Dayton, Hamilton,
Middletown, and Springfield. Fred Bartenstein and Curtis W. Ellison
edit a collection of eyewitness narratives and in-depth analyses
that explore southwestern Ohio’s bluegrass musicians, radio
broadcasters, recording studios, record labels, and performance
venues, along with the music’s contributions to religious
activities, community development, and public education. As the
bluegrass scene grew, southwestern Ohio's distinctive sounds
reached new fans and influenced those everywhere who continue to
play, produce, and love roots music. Revelatory and multifaceted,
Industrial Strength Bluegrass shares the inspiring story of a
bluegrass hotbed and the people who created it. Contributors: Fred
Bartenstein, Curtis W. Ellison, Jon Hartley Fox, Rick Good, Lily
Isaacs, Ben Krakauer, Mac McDivitt, Nathan McGee, Daniel Mullins,
Joe Mullins, Larry Nager, Phillip J. Obermiller, Bobby Osborne, and
Neil V. Rosenberg.
