Across the Blue Ridge #72- Lightnin’ Wells, one-man band




88.5 WFDD - Across the Blue Ridge show

Summary: Mike “Lightnin’” Wells brings traditions together in his entertaining, informative and down-home one-man shows.  His latest album, titled “O Lightnin’ Where Art Thou?”, displays his range as never before, as he plays and sings his way through songs from early country and bluegrass to blues, gospel and old time mountain music.  Born in West Virginia and largely raised in North Carolina, Lightnin’ was smitten early by the famed WWVA Jamboree radio show out of Wheeling, West Virginia.
