LISTEN: Steve Poltz Has The Mountain Stage Song Of The Week

On this week’s premiere broadcast of Mountain Stage, host Kathy Mattea welcomes songwriter, producer and legend of the B3 organ, Booker T. Jones, bluesy folk singer and songwriter Chris Smither, renowned hitmaker, singer and multi-instrumentalist Karla Bonoff, songwriter and storytelling wild man Steve Poltz, and honey-toned singer and writer Amber Rubarth to the stage in Rohnert Park, California. Recorded at the Green Music Center – Weill Hall on the campus of Sonoma State University, this show is packed with memorable moments, compelling performances and some wonderful stories.

Folk hero and storytelling master, Steve Poltz has our Song of the Week. In this delightfully fizzy performance of “Can O’ Pop,” Poltz is backed by the Mountain Stage Band. The song comes from his most recent album Stardust & Satellites which was released earlier this year.
