Over the past 49 years, the Edom Art Festival has grown to become one of our region's signature art events, drawing thousands of artists and visitors every year since 1972. Yet without all the years of continuity and improvement the festival would not be what it is today.
Another long-term success story is the band Asleep at the Wheel, who are celebrating their 50th year in music with a new album titled Half a Hundred Years. The album comes out October 1 with 19 tracks featuring the return of three original members plus guest vocals by Willie Nelson, George Strait, Emmylou Harris, Lyle Lovett, and Lee Ann Womack. They've come a long way since starting on a farm in Paw Paw, West Virginia in 1970, and they're much better for it.
