CREATING
A HIGH-DEFINITION VIDEO ARCHIVE FOR FUTURE GENERATIONS
ARMS
is dedicated to preserving the great performances, history
and oral tradition, of American Roots Music. We create educational
television programs that distribute to PBS affiliates, and
our archives may be accessed worldwide through a robust content
management system that streams performances, interviews and
programs online.
We produce concerts and special events, and documentaries
and television shows that promote awareness of America’s
musical treasures, and are creating study guides to help integrate
Roots Music into curriculum in English, History, Georgraphy
and Arts.
"This
is the quintessential American Music.
Telling these stories, Honeyboy's story, is necessary.
Without this music there would be no music at all."

With
budget cuts in music programs there is virtually no public
assistance for our projects. Despite this lack of funding,
we’ve continued to film and record hundreds of the greatest
performances of legendary American musicians, that otherwise
would be lost.
Please
take a look at what we’ve accomplished and make a decision
to help us to continue the good work that we’ve started.
