This week’s encore broadcast of Mountain Stage was recorded on June 23, 2024 at the Culture Center Theater in Charleston, WV. The episode features an indie supergroup that’s been clawing its way through the music scene with the fun folk-rock tunes off their debut album, Now That’s What I Call Fantastic Cat.
This must-hear “supergroup” is none other than Fantastic Cat, comprised of some of New York’s best singer-songwriters, including Anthony D’Amato, Brian Dunne, Don DiLego, and Mike Montali (Hollis Brown). Their song “All My Fault” is our Song of the Week.
On this episode you’ll also hear live performances by soul and country singer Maggie Rose when she makes her Mountain Stage debut, five-piece bluegrass group The Brothers Comatose, Kentucky singer-songwriter Kelsey Waldon, and 23-year-old Myron Elkins who blends country, funk, rock and soul.
This week’s broadcast of Mountain Stage features a collection of Kathy Mattea's favorite sets, including performances by Jason Isbell, Catherine Russell, Karla Bonoff, The High Kings, and Jennifer Hartswick Band.
On this week's premiere broadcast of Mountain Stage, guest host and CBS Sunday Morning correspondent Conor Knighton welcomes The Baseball Project, The Minus 5, Bob Mould, Chris Stamey, and Loose Cattle.
