Pickin' on Peachtree: A History of Country Music in Atlanta, Georgia Paperback - 2000

by Wayne W. Daniel


From the publisher

But for a few twists of fate, Atlanta could have grown to be the recording center that Nashville is today. Pickin' on Peachtree traces Atlanta's emergence in the 1920s as a major force in country recording and radio broadcasting and its forty years as a hub of country music.

From the Old Time Fiddlers' Conventions and barn dances through the rise of station WSB and other key radio outlets, Wayne W. Daniel thoroughly documents the consolidation of country music as big business in Atlanta. He also profiles a vast array of performers, radio personalities, and recording moguls who transformed the Peachtree city into the nerve center of early country music.

First line

ON MARCH 4, 1913, Woodrow Wilson became the twenty-eighth president of the United States, assuming his leadership role during a period in American history that has been characterized as one of prosperity and economic expansion.
