The Rabble team is delighted to announce the latest MUSICat collection launch!: Tracks Music Library. This new collection is a project of Chapel Hill Public Library and Community Arts & Culture.
The collection launches with over 70 albums by artists that represent North Carolina's Raleigh/Durham/Chapel Hill Triangle Area music community. “These hyper-local music collections allow libraries to claim their place in the local music ecosystem, supporting both music lovers and bands in the discovery of new content,” says Tracks Coordinator and Library Special Projects Manager Molly Luby.
Librarians in Chapel Hill especially amplified the voices of Black artists for the Tracks launch with a playlist featuring Black and Brown Artists.
Tracks Music Library artist Rowdy captures the essence of the collection: “We’re not New York, we’re not LA, man we’re North Carolina, and we’re southern to the core, and we sound like us.”
