Music meets storytelling at Moonshine and Motorsports Music, a special concert series kicking off at the North Carolina Museum of History tomorrow, Aug. 10.

Inspired by North Carolina’s unique cultural tapestry, this three-part event follows the existing Moonshine and Motorsports Trail from Raleigh to Elizabeth City, musically + narratively highlighting historic stops along the way.

Americana legend Jim Lauderdale + bluegrass trio the Kruger Brothers headline tomorrow’s performance, which also features a number of special musical guests.
