On this West Virginia Morning, we learn about one of West Virginia’s legendary musical families, the Kessingers. Also, in this show, a brush fire in the New River Gorge National Park and Preserve has grown, and hospital workers in Huntington have ended their month-long strike.
Also, at his regular coronavirus press briefing, Gov. Jim Justice revealed he might have been exposed to COVID-19.
We also have this week’s Mountain Stage Song of the Week. It comes from North Mississippi Allstars’ newest album Set Sail, which will be available in January on New West Records.
