On this week’s encore broadcast of Mountain Stage, you’ll hear performances from Bettye LaVette, Kim Richey, Keller Williams, The Langan Band, and Megan Jean’s Secret Family. This episode was recorded live at the Templeton-Blackburn Alumni Memorial Auditorium in Athens, Ohio with our friends at Ohio University and WOUB.
Our Song of the Week comes from Ohio University alum and Nashville singer-songwriter Kim Richey. Making her seventh appearance on the show in the town where she attended college, Richey performed the emotionally appropriate “A Place Called Home,” which appeared on her 2002 album Rise.
Hear Richey‘s entire set on this week’s broadcast, plus performances from legendary soul singer Bettye LaVette, jam-grass aficionado Keller Williams, Scottish folk trio The Langan Band, and Ohio based indie-rockers Megan Jean’s Secret Family. Tune in starting Friday, Jan. 24 on these public radio stations.
Thank you to our partners at WOUB Public Media and OHIO Performing Arts & Concert Series.
