Background

Founded in 1976, the Down Home has become a mecca for music lovers in Upper East Tennessee and Southwest Virginia.

The primary emphasis is on quality music, and the performance atmosphere promotes listening rather than socializing. There is plenty of time for friendly conversation before the show and between sets. With an excellent sound system hung from the ceiling, the club is a favorite of performers as well as listeners.

For info on the Tri Cities area (food, dining, etc.), give GoTriCities a whirl.
