DESCRIPTION Backroads is a locally produced music program for Lakeland PBS, showcasing an array of talented musicians from around the state, some traveling many hours to perform on Backroads . Performances were closed to audiences, but still recorded at the beautiful and authentic Rail River Folk School (RRFS) in Bemidji in November 2022. IMPACT Backroads fulfills the goals of Legacy funding by exposing the citizens of north central Minnesota to local musicians they might not otherwise be familiar with. Musicians featured on Backroads have noted that the exposure gained through the broadcasts has helped them promote their performances and increase awareness of their recorded work. By providing a broadcast platform to showcase the musical artistic expression of area Minnesotans, it connects the viewer at home to an expanse of arts and culture they would otherwise not be able to experience.
