Chattanooga Folk – Chattanooga Folk Archive

An Archive & Special Collection Repository

We specialize in saving media on the brink of obscurity, while simultaneously creating a digital footprint. In order to unearth the history of our archived material, it is essential to learn the background of the individual pieces. Artists or groups with multiple works can be found in the artist catalog. This archive is filtered and organized otherwise by city, state, & country. Visit our collections page to browse media by format.

There are over 537,000,000 sound recordings in collection-holding organizations across the United
States. Nearly 60% of these are estimated to be unique or rare while less than 20% have been digitized.
The cost of digitizing these items would be over $20 billion dollars.*
