We've teamed up with Come Hear NC on a podcast series that explores North Carolina music one song at a time. This time, musician Joe Newberry tells us why he is inspired by the Switzerland born and NC based bluegrass trio Kruger Brothers. "Carolina In The Fall" tells the story of their journey here.

"The Kruger Brothers, they exemplify the draw of North Carolina music. You know, North Carolina music is a regional, it's a state music, but most of the music from North Carolina, it belongs to the world."
