July 09, 2009
Medford musician Scotty Gosson will be inducted into America's Old Time Country Music Hall of Fame in September, the organization has announced.
Gosson, a bluegrass musician, will be honored during the annual National Traditional Country Music Association convention in LeMars, Iowa.
Inductions since 1976 have honored significant contributors to America's "old time country music," a press release from the organization said.
"We've been doing this now for 35 years," Bob Everhart, president of the group, said in the release. "Over the years we have honored celebrities and just regular folks who have made significant contributions to the music and dance of our pioneer settlers and homesteaders. Scotty Gosson of Medford, Oregon, is one of those contributors."
