We've added Todd Snider to our line-up at the Paramount Arts Center in Ashland, KY August 2. Todd's latest CD, The Excitement Plan, has been getting rave reviews and features a guest spot by Loretta Lynn.

This marks Todd's tenth appearance on the show.

Returning to Charleston, WV for her fifth appearance on Mountain Stage is the independent-minded Jill Sobule, who released her latest album,  California Years, with financial contributions from her listeners. (How public radio is THAT?)

She joins us August 30 at the Culture Center Theater in Charleston, WV along with Jason Isbell & 400 Unit, Poco and Ben Sollee.

Dig the album on her Web site, and get your tickets online, by phone at 800.594 TIXX, or at Taylor Books in downtown Charleston.
