Sing Out! Radio Magazine

The Pandemic has caused many families to be apart. Betty and I last visited our son and his wife in West Virginia for Christmas 2019. Little did we know at the time, it would be 18 months until we could return. Well, we've all had our innoculations and we headed back to the Mountain State for the Memorial Day weekend to celebrate my birthday. We had a wonderful time, so this week we'll sample some of my favorite artists and music from West Virginia. We'll hear Hazel Dickens & Alice Gerrard, Tim O'Brien, Kathy Mattea and many more. Let's take a trip to The Mountain State … this week on The Sing Out! Radio Magazine.
