The legacy of pioneering bluegrass musician Charlie Poole is celebrated every year in his native North Carolina. The Charlie Poole Music Festival in Eden is in its 14th year and the concert line-up is a dream for fans of traditional roots music. Dom Flemons of the Carolina Chocolate Drops and Kinney Rorrer of the New North Carolina Ramblers join host Frank Stasio to play live and talk about the continuing influence of Poole's unique banjo style.
