On this week’s Mountain Stage, we revisit an archive episode from 2019 featuring Gregory Alan Isakov, Elysian Fields, Watchhouse (formerly Mandolin Orange), The Brother Brothers and Hush Kids, recorded in Morgantown, West Virginia at the West Virginia University (WVU) Canady Creative Arts Center with host Larry Groce.
North Carolina’s Watchhouse have been guests on Mountain Stage four times since 2013. Their 2019 album, Tides of a Teardrop, was released shortly after this appearance and landed at the top of four different Billboard Music Charts.
Our Song of the Week is the group’s 2019 performance of “The Wolves,” which is also highlighted on our new compilation album Live on Mountain Stage: Outlaws and Outliers, available now through Oh Boy Records.
Listen starting Friday, May 10 for the entire set by Watchhouse, plus more music from Gregory Alan Isakov, Elysian Fields, The Brother Brothers and Hush Kids.
Find a station in your area to listen or queue up episode 936 via the Mountain Stage podcast and enjoy wherever you may be.
