Abstract:

Where do local country music singers and musicians go to build name recognition and a following? In North Carolina the answer is the country music showcase, which gives local talent a chance to perform on stage with a live band. Showcases have appeared over the last ten years in towns including Benson, Goldsboro, Liberty, and Smithfield. Some local performers, like Julie Hamilton, are profiled.
