On June 23rd, 2016, the almost-heavens over West Virginia opened up. A thousand year deluge washed away homes and churches, schools and livelihoods totaling 340 million dollars. Worst of all, it washed away 23 lives.

Two months later, on August 21st, Michael Cerveris gathered this free-wheeling bunch of big hearted musicians from both WV and NYC in Joe’s Pub to donate their time and their music for two movingly joyful benefit shows. They raised an impressive amount of money for the WV Red Cross, but it was never just about the money. It was also a chance to introduce the music and beauty of today’s West Virginia to an eager New York audience and to let the people back in Cerveris' home state know they weren't forgotten by some of the finest musicians and people in New York. And it worked pretty darn well.

recorded live at Joe's Pub in NYC, mixed by Mark Bingham and mastered by David Glasser and Anna Frick at Airshow Mastering
