MUSIC AND CRAFTS

IN MOUNTAIN VIEW

A Town Built On Music

In Mountain View, music is not just a pastime—it’s the heartbeat of the community. Whether you’re walking through the town square or relaxing by the courthouse, you’re bound to hear the sounds of traditional mountain folk music. The air fills with the melodies of fiddles, banjos, guitars, and even washboards, played by musicians young and old.

The town’s main stage is in front of the courthouse, but you’ll also find impromptu performances at Pickin' Park, in front of local music shops, and at spots like Jimmy Driftwood’s Barn. No matter where you turn, there’s always a tune being played, keeping the spirit of folk music alive in every corner of the town.
