So that snow thing? It’s still happening. (Sadly.) So we’re going to make the best of it by catching up on some cool (pun intended) archived Red Molly and Drive-By Truckers before they each hit the Mountain Stage later this month.
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.
Chill out (second pun intended) this Saturday March 7 and Sunday March 8 for “Mountain Stage After Midnight.”
First up is an August 2011 show recorded at the birthplace of country music in Bristol, Tennessee, with sets from Jim Lauderdale, John Lilly, Red Molly (who are coming back to the Mountain Stage on March 22), David Mayfield Parade and Vince Gill.
You’ll also hear a February 2009 show featuring Steve Poltz, Sometymes Why, Belleville Outfit, The Spring Standards and Drive-By Truckers (who are performing for the second time on the Mountain Stage next week!).
And… there’s more! Listen to a 24/7 Mountain Stage stream and learn more about our Digital Archives Project on our brand new website. Connect with Larry Groce and Mountain Stage artists on Facebook, Twitter, Tumblr and Instagram. We love keeping your ears occupied with The Mountain Stage Podcast, and we’re saving you a seat at our next live show.

Also, a Hare Krishna community in West Virginia serves vegetarian food made in three sacred kitchens. And, COVID-19 exposed the contempt society has for marginalized people. One author says, these folks are anything but passive.

The Ohio-based festival over the years has hosted American music icons, like John Prine, Willie Nelson and Loretta Lynn, while also supporting regional artists.

These are accessible baseball facilities that can accommodate players with disabilities.
