On this week’s premiere broadcast of Mountain Stage, host Kathy Mattea welcomes performances from The Headhunters, Amanda Ann Platt & The Honeycutters, David Berkeley, Buffalo Rose, and Crys Matthews, recorded at the Culture Center Theater in Charleston, WV.
Our Song of the Week comes from the legendary jazz fusion band, best known for their 70s era records with the great pianist Herbie Hancock, The Headhunters. “Watermelon Man” was written by Hancock and was first released in 1962. On this live recording, you’ll hear Michael Clark on drums, William Summer on Vocals and Percussion, Donald Harrison on Saxophone, Shea Pierre on Piano, and Chris Severin on bass.
Tune in starting Friday, March 28 to hear their full set, plus more live performances by Americana roots artist Amanda Ann Platt & The Honeycutters, singer-songwriter David Berkeley, modern folk group Buffalo Rose, and the observant perspective from performing songwriter Crys Matthews.
