David Menconi, a white professional music critic from San Antonio, Tex., began his career in 1985.

The collection includes interview notes, correspondence, press releases, press packets, biographies, and videotapes, 1984-2017, relating to interviews Menconi conducted with alt-country, folk-rock, and rock and roll musicians from North Carolina and other parts of the South. Among those represented are Whiskeytown, Arrogance, the Backsliders, the Connells, Cracker, Mitch Easter, Chris Stamey, Peter Holsapple, Flat Duo Jets, Kevn Kinney, Tift Merritt, and Southern Culture on the Skids.
