Throughout the day December 25 our listeners will be treated to classic episodes of Joy to the World airing from 12am-6am, 9am-4pm and 6pm-midnight. Special guest vocalists you’ll hear include Catherine Russell, Tom Lellis, Kim Nalley, Dwight Lennox and Toni Lynn Washington & the Appalachian Children’s Chorus.

Happy Holidays from all of us here at West Virginia Public Broadcasting.
