Sexton and Lovell and Earle, oh my! We’re off to see the wizard of live performance radio on this week’s “Mountain Stage After Midnight.” (Ruby red slippers are optional.)
Broadcast from 1am-5am Saturday and Sunday mornings here on West Virginia Public Broadcasting, “Mountain Stage After Midnight” takes the best episodes from the show’s 31 year history and shares their memories and songs with our late-night listeners.
Follow us down the yellow brick road on Saturday March 28 and Sunday March 29 for “Mountain Stage After Midnight.”
Relive a May 2009 show featuring Martin Sexton (who’s coming back to the Mountain Stage this April!), Ruthie Foster, Yarn, Meaghan Smith and Rocco DeLuca & The Burden.
We’ll also hear a June 2009 show featuring The Lovell Sisters, Doyle Lawson, Steve Earle, King Wilkie and Sara Watkins.
Whether you’re out or about, Mountain Stage’s there to help you rock out. Keep up with us on Facebook, Twitter, Tumblr and Instagram. Get the latest show announcements and ticket deals with our email newsletter. You can even hear a 24/7 stream of archived Mountain Stage sets (made possible by your support)!
