Musical Interlude: Here's a new-to-me duo I heard for the first time this morning on an episode of "Mountain Stage." They met by chance, became friends, and have performed together ever since, and this song is rather moving.

"The Ones That I Love," performed live by Mama's Broke.

Musical Interlude: At the Old Time Festival, I saw the Golden Shoals (again). I saw them first when they were called the Hoot and Hollers...not sure why they changed their name, but oh well. I'm not a huge fan of their recordings, which are hit and miss for me, but live they're fun. This song came from a visit the singer made to an elderly musician who invited her to stay for a few days, and they lazed about the house in the mountains, puttering and making music. It's a great "vibe" song for a lazy weekend.

"Turn the Radio On," performed by the Golden Shoals.
