Music lovers throughout Central Texas can see artifacts that represent the diversity of American music at the LBJ Presidential Library as part of the 'Music America: Iconic Objects From America's Music History' exhibit.
Ruthie Foster helped kick off the start of the"Music America: Iconic Objects from America's Music History" exhibition at the LBJ Presidential Library on Thursday. The exhibition features more than 100 objects representing the best of American music.
The exhibit features artifacts from artists in an array of genres spanning 250 years, even music from the 1700s. Visitors can walk up to the exhibit's “Song Bar," put on a pair of headphones, and watch recorded performances of featured artists like the Bee Gees’ “Night Fever.
Lawrence said the items in the collection, and music in general, can get people interested in more aspects of American history. Blues and gospel artist Ruthie Foster performed at the library Thursday during a concert to celebrate the exhibit opening. Foster grew up around music and said her dad introduced her to diverse genres and blues musicians such as Lead Belly and Mance Lipscomb. When creating her music, she said she channels the musicians from her childhood and those featured in the exhibit, including Holiday.
