On this week’s encore broadcast of Mountain Stage, we revisit the first of two 41st anniversary shows, which were recorded at the Culture Center Theater in Charleston, West Virginia in December 2024. Guest host and CBS Sunday Morning correspondent Conor Knighton welcomes Stephen Kellogg, Jill Sobule, Mindy Smith, Caleb Caudle & The Sweet Critters, and The David Mayfield Parade.
As our Song of the Week, we’ve chosen the poignant and heartfelt performance of “Face Your Life” by The David Mayfield Parade. This single was written by David Mayfield and his wife Jessie and was inspired by the poem If by Rudyard Kipling and the book 12 Rules for Life by Jordan Peterson. In this live performance, you’ll hear David Mayfield on lead vocal and guitar, Keith Wallen on mandolin and harmony vocals, Ryan Wallen on resophonic guitar and harmony vocals, Steven Moore on banjo, and Graham Bell on bass.
Check out the full playlist for a preview, and join us on one of these affiliate stations starting Friday, Nov. 28 to hear the full episode.
This episode features the last of many appearances on the show by Jill Sobule, who we lost in May 2025. We dedicate this broadcast to her memory and to Jill’s many friends, family, and fans.
As always, Jill puts on a clinic in humor, wit, brains, and heart during this set.
