Rob Brydon ventures deep into the Appalachian Mountains - the birthplace of country music’s vibrant and diverse roots.

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.
