On this week’s premiere broadcast of Mountain Stage, host Kathy Mattea welcomes her good friend and fellow country star Suzy Bogguss, French jazz guitarist Stephane Wrembel, folk duo Mama’s Broke, singer-songwriter Denitia and performing songwriter couple Goldpine.
Our Song of the Week comes from Stephane Wrembel. In this live performance of “Bistro Fada,” Wrembel is joined by Josh Kaye, Ari Folman-Cohen and Nick Anderson. This Django-influenced tune is heard on his fifth album Origins, which became the theme song for Woody Allen’s 2011 Oscar-winning film, Midnight in Paris.
Hear Wrembel’s entire set on this week’s broadcast, plus live performances from Suzy Bogguss, Mama’s Broke, Denitia and Goldpine starting Friday, June 7 on these public radio stations.

Allegheny Mountain Radio is among those fighting to stay on the air. Also, a book by a West Virginia artist illustrates the tiny worlds of mountain critters, like a lizard that changes color.
