As announced Monday on her Facebook page, country singer and Sirius XM Outlaw Country’s “Apron Strings” host Elizabeth Cook has canceled a string of upcoming performances and will not appear as scheduled on Mountain Stage Sunday, October 19. We will reschedule her appearance as soon as possible.
We’d like to wish Elizabeth the best while she gets some much needed rest and we look forward to the chance to work with her again in the future.
Tickets to the October 19 show are still available. Performers include Todd Snider, legendary songwriter Chip Taylor, The Secret Sisters and renowned producer and recording artist Ethan Johns.
Listen this week for an encore broadcast of Mountain Stage featuring Larkin Poe, Victoria Canal, Raye Zaragoza, Ron Pope, and Christian Lopez. This episode was recorded with our host Kathy Mattea on the campus of West Virginia University, thanks to our friends at WVU College of Creative Arts and Media.
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.
