Events

Downtown Mount Airy comes alive with cars, food, music, shopping and more.

The Martha Bassett Show featuring Africa Unplugged, The Wildwoods, and Jason McKinney. This show is in partnership with Piedmont Opera. The Martha Bassett Show is recorded live at the historic Reeves Theater in beautiful downtown Elkin and blends the fabric of the national roots and Americana scene with the rich artistry, history, and flair of North Carolina’s Piedmont region. Helmed by one of the state’s most distinguished musicians, the live show features national artists, fresh local faces, and music from Martha Bassett. Each show is a collaboration in song and conversation between Martha, her band, and the guests. Each performance is recorded, live-streamed, and edited into a weekly one-hour broadcast on 88.5 WFDD and other NPR stations. You can also listen to the show as a podcast.
