Become a part of broadcast history as two-time GRAMMY Award winner and West Virginia native Kathy Mattea hosts a taping of Mountain Stage, live from the Hylton Center’s Merchant Hall. Since 1983, Mountain Stage has, for nearly 40 years, given listeners the “best seat in the house” for performances by rising stars and longtime legends. Recorded in front of a live audience, each two-hour episode features contemporary artists in genres ranging from roots, folk, blues, and country to indie rock, synth pop, world music, alternative, and beyond. Some of their most iconic guests have included Regina Spektor, John Prine, R.E.M., Phish, Alison Krauss, and Buddy Guy, among many others. Witness the stars of today and tomorrow in this on-the-road taping of one of the most beloved and enduring programs in public radio history.

This performance will be taped live for radio broadcast and is recommended for patrons ages 7 and older. 

Mountain Stage is produced by West Virginia Public Broadcasting and distributed by NPR Music.
