This week’s broadcast reflects on some of our favorite performers who appeared on Mountain Stage in recent years during FestivALL Charleston, the city-wide arts celebration that helps our hometown become a work of art throughout the year, including their summer and fall festivals.

For this retrospective our host, Larry Groce (a co-founder of FestivALL), chose some of the best performances in recent years, including Todd Snider, Lucius, Alsarah & the Nubatones, and a couple West Virginia artists, William Matheny and John R. Miller, to name a few. The show culminates with an outstanding set from The Wood Brothers, whose track “Can’t Look Away” is our Song of the Week.

Hear this special “FestivALL Favorites” episode starting Friday, June 19 on these public radio stations. Here in West Virginia you can tune to WVPB at 8p.m. on Saturday, June 20 (West Virginia Day!) and Friday June 26. See the entire playlist here and be sure to watch for our special virtual presentation, “There’s a Stream,” coming on Sunday, June 28 at 7p.m. at MountainStage.org and LiveSessions.NPR.org.
