Can’t make it Europe to celebrate St. Patrick’s Day? Don your best green and join Mountain Stage as we open up the archives for some great Celtic music.
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.
Join us for some toe-tapping Celtic tunes this Saturday March 14 and Sunday March 15 for “Mountain Stage After Midnight.”
First up is our Mountain Stage Celtic music special, featuring archived performances from Celtic rockers, folkers and poppers, including Bell X1, Karen Casey & John Doyle, Cathie Ryan, Lunasa, The Lost Brothers and Celtic Fiddle Festival and The Henry Girls.
We’ll also hear a Mountain Stage broadcast from the 2011 Celtic Connection Festival in Glasgow, Scotland. This show includes sets from R&B singer Mavis Staples, Scottish multi-instrumentalist Dougie MacLean, Boston-based string band Joy Kills Sorrow and singer-guitarist duo Mollie O’Brien and Rich Moore.
