Mountain Stage episode #710 is "in the can" as we like to say. Thanks to everyone who came out last night in Charleston to hear Mike Doughty, Diane Birch, Langhorne Slim, Dala and Dawes. You can hear yourselves on the radio during the weekend of January 8-10. That's January 10 at 3 pm on WV Public Radio. Check for a station in your area HERE and keep an eye on our Broadcast Schedule for playlists and air-dates.

There are some photos from last night up on our MySpace page, thanks to Chris Morris.

We had some visitors in our audience from Spain, as well as parts of Ohio and Iowa. Thanks for coming to see the show in person.

This past weekend on the radio was a show we recorded at the Create WV conference in October featuring Kathy Mattea, Or, The Whale, Shannon Whitworth, the Songcatchers and The Ahs. Here is a PLAYLIST . Stay tuned to NPR Music for individual guest segments.

Don't forget about our YouTube Channel "Backstage at Mountain Stage" where we've got sit-down interviews culled with performance footage with some of our recent guests, including These United States, Squirrel Nut Zippers and Southern Culture on the Skids.

You can also get an mp3 of the entire show, including songs cut from the radio for purposes of time, on our ARCHIVES page.
