Hear The Pines Play "Rise Up and Be Lonely" Live on Mountain Stage

The lush, dark, and atmospheric sounds Twin Cities band The Pines evoke the steely autumn breeze coming off the shore of Lake Superior, where this week’s episode of Mountain Stage was recorded. Here they play the song “Rise Up and Be Lonely” from their 2012 release “Dark So Gold.”

On This Week's Broadcast: BoDeans, Jill Sobule, Julia Sweeny & More

This week’s episode of Mountain Stage is our first of two recorded on the shores of Lake Superior at the North House Folk School in Grand Marais, Minnesota. Going strong for 30 years, you’ll hear alt-rock institution The BoDeans make their fifth appearance on the show. Comprised of members of Duluth’s Trampled By Turtles, Dead Man Winter make their Mountain Stage debut. The Pines bring their evocative and atmospheric brand of northern Midwest alt Americana. Minnesota-based singer-songwriter Jonathan Rundman opens the show, and you’ll also hear from the Jill and Julia show – our friend Jill Sobule, along with SNL alum Julia Sweeny.

Listen this Sunday at 2 on West Virginia Public Radio, or across America on one of more than 130 public radio stations.
