August winner
The August “Where Is This” photo by Abby Seavert features a painted tobacco barn located at the intersection of Red Hill and Nickens Roads in Cameron. The barn is one of many painted by artist and Cameron native David Ellis. He gathered a group of New York City and Tokyo artists who traveled to Moore County 17 years ago to reinvigorate these old barns with art. Ellis and his team brought a much-needed splash of color to the area in an effort known as the Barnstormer Murals. Farming equipment and tractor trailers were also hit with splashes of color. The winning entry chosen at random from all correct submissions came from Mimi Gannaway of Charlotte, a Union Power member. Have a roadside gem you’d like to share?

September’S FEATURED TRACK
“Marsh Girl”
MUSIC
By Casey Noel
Shana Leigh Photography
Inspired by the bestselling novel “Where the Crawdads Sing,” Casey penned this haunting musical tribute about a young girl growing up abandoned and alone in North Carolina marshland. Her ethereal voice rings against a backdrop of eerie, swampland sounds to create a sense of both foreboding and hope. It’s one of six tracks on Casey’s new debut EP, “Not Just Pretty Words.” Even though she’s played guitar since she was five years old, Casey’s main passion was competitive ballroom dancing until age 17. She then decided to focus on music, and credits key industry professionals for helping her blossom as a songwriter and singer.
