Listen: Andrew Adkins on Mountain Stage

Fayetteville, West Virginia’s Andrew Adkins is renowned for his honest and heartfelt songwriting. His  fourth solo album, “Who I Am,” was produced by Mountain Stage band leader Ron Sowell.

Adkins brought a band of West Virginia music luminaries with him to perform songs from “Who I Am” on Mountain Stage, which you can hear on this week’s encore broadcast.

Our Song of the Week is Adkins’ vulnerable, reflective ballad “Fragile Heart,” performed alongside vocalist Annie Neeley, guitarist Bud Carroll, mandolinist Johnny Staats, and Adkins’ longtime bassist Clint Lewis. We’ve placed a video for the song from our Live Sessions page at NPR Music.

With the freshness of 2019 comes Greensky Bluegrass who bring a new album titled All For Money. This band joined us for the first time back in 2011 and they’re currently touring the U.S. through mid-September.

Over the past 30 years, Donna The Buffalo has been able to claim quite the name for themselves along with a dedicated fanbase. Dance in the Street is their first album release in five years and was produced by Rob Fraboni, known for his work with artists such as Bob Dylan, The Band, Eric Clapton, and The Rolling Stones.

We also look forward to hosting Robbie Fulks & Linda Gail Lewis, who released a collaborative album titled “Wild! Wild! Wild!” just last year. The album undoubtedly pulls you back in time and we can’t wait to hear them perform on our stage.

From Fayetteville, W.Va., Andrew Adkins, is gearing up to release his album produced by Mountain Stage band leader, Ron Sowell, “Who I Am”. Adkins is well versed in the world of performance, as Tim O’Brien says, “His music and the stories he tells us are honest and real. Andrew reminds us that we’re all in this together.”
