Rhonda Gouge and Keeping Time (Rhonda Gouge, Kathy Kuhne, and Sam McKinney) is a trio of musicians from Mitchell County who play an eclectic mix of folk, bluegrass, blues, gospel, and old-time mountain music. The trio is led by Rhonda Gouge, an accomplished and well-known singer/songwriter, teacher, and picker of anything with strings. Rhonda is also a 2023 NC Heritage Award recipient. Please join us in welcoming them to the Orchard on Saturday, September 13 from 2 PM to 4 PM.
The Orchard Music Program offers live, traditional music in support of our nonprofit mission to preserve the history, heritage and culture of the Blue Ridge Mountains. Our hope is to educate the public about the Appalachian experience so that these important traditions may be carried forward with future generations.
