Episode 2

Rob Brydon continues his musical adventure through the southern states of America, celebrating 100 years of country music. He ventures deep into the Appalachian Mountains - the birthplace of country’s vibrant and diverse roots.

Diving headfirst into the local culture, he samples traditional – and once-illegal – moonshine, takes a thrilling spin around a dirt track in a stock car, and traces country music’s 'big bang' moment: the legendary 1927 Bristol Sessions that launched the careers of Jimmie Rodgers and the Carter Family.
