We revisit The Wood Brothers’ third appearance on Mountain Stage as part of this week’s encore episode. The trio’s high-energy set includes songs from their exceptional album “One Drop of Truth,” released in February 2018.
They also perform “Chocolate On My Tongue,” a favorite from their 2006 debut album “Ways Not To Lose,” which is our Mountain Stage Song of the Week.
“Over the years we’ve written a lot of dessert songs,” front-man Oliver Wood said while introducing the song, “Wish we could do them all, but inspired by the brownies down in catering, we chose this one.”

This week’s episode is hosted by singer-songwriter Peter Mulvey.
Hear the entire set from The Wood Brothers, plus the unmatched wit of Todd Snider, legendary troubadors Dave Alvin & Jimmie Dale Gilmore, and emmerging soul rocker Kat Wright, on this week’s encore episode of Mountain Stage with special guest-host Peter Mulvey.
THIS SUNDAY’s Mountain Stage welcomes The Wood Brothers, Dave Alvin & Jimmie Dale Gilmore, Todd Snider, Kat Wright, and special guest-host Peter Mulvey!
We’ll be helping to celebrate the final day of FestivALL Charleston in our favorite kind of way. Tickets for the show are SOLD OUT but you can still join us from anywhere thanks to VuHaus and the WVPB Video Production department.
The Wood Brothers, who released “One Drop of Truth” in February, will return for their third appearance on Mountain Stage this Sunday. If you’d like a little preview, have a listen to their last visit.
Our special guest-host, Peter Mulvey has a recurring gig at the National Youth Science Camp, located in West Virginia, which led to a spoken word piece, “Vlad the Astrophysicist”, which became a TEDx talk, and then an illustrated book. Mulvey performed “Vlad” when he made his most recent appearance on Mountain Stage last September in Morgantown, WV.
It’s going to be a great show and we hope you’ll tune in! Just head on over to MountainStage.org or VuHaus.com at 7pm EST on Sunday evening to watch along.

On Sunday June 24 Mountain Stage will once again be a part of FestivALL Charleston, the city-wide celebration of the arts in our hometown of Charleston, WV. Iconic songwriters Dave Alvin& Jimmie Dale Gilmore, and Vermont’s emerging soul-music star Kat Wright, have already been announced. Today we’re adding the next round of artists, and our next guest-host.
The Wood Brothers, who released “One Drop of Truth” in February, will return for their third appearance on Mountain Stage on June 24. Also, just announced, our favorite bare-foot and folk-singing hippie, author and jam band singer Todd Snider will return to Mountain Stage as well. By our best estimate, this will make Todd’s 15th appearance on the show since 1995.
Peter Mulvey will guest-host Mountain Stage on Sunday, June 24 during FestivALL Charleston.
We’re excited to announce that singer, songwriter and guitarist Peter Mulvey will be stepping up to the microphone as our special guest-host. Mulvey has a recurring gig at the National Youth Science Camp, located in West Virginia, which led to a spoken word piece, “Vlad the Astrophysicist”, which became aTEDx talk, and then an illustrated book.
