Green Grass Cloggers- music by Strictly Strings @ Appalachian State O-T Fiddlers Convention
(Click 2:43 for shortcut to Clogging) This was the individual “freestyle clogging“ exhibition by the Green Grass Cloggers with old time string band music by Strictly Strings from Boone, North Carolina. This was entertainment-only included in the Dance Competition hour at the end of the day.
This 2018 video from vafolklife is a must see:

Just to provide a bit more info: Clogging/Flatfooting is considered a dance that was created in the Appalachian Mountains and was influenced by styles of the Native Americans, Africans, Irish, Scottish, and Brits. Originally, people danced without taps on wooden porches to create rhythms as musicians played old-time tunes.
Green Grass Cloggers formed in 1971 out of East
