Larry Groce

We hear a voice familiar to public radio listeners across the country: that of Larry Groce, creator of the program “Mountain Stage,” produced by West Virginia Public Broadcasting for over 40 years. Larry hosted the program from 1983 until 2021, when West Virginia native Kathy Mattea took over the hosting duties. In addition to the history of the program, we discuss a new compilation album, “Live on Mountain Stage: Outlaws and Outliers.”
