I was walking down the street and I came upon this really cool wall. Asheville fits into the stereotype of Appalachia in a unique way. Appalachia doesn't exactly fit into the modern, mainstream culture. Asheville fits into that non-conforming mold. Asheville is also home to some pretty unique music. A lot of this music has roots in traditional "Appalachian" music, using instruments such as the banjo and mandolin. I associate this alternate art with the alternate music because they both call Asheville and the Appalachian mountains home. #appalachianechoes ](https://images.trvl-media.com/place/6034866/f951a17f-a3a6-4c1b-9300-56cbf6644b84.jpg?impolicy=fcrop&w=1040&h=580&q=mediumHigh) ![A guilded age crafted Basilica in the inner city of Asheville, North Carolina.
