I was down in Sunset Beach, North Carolina visiting my Mom for a week, and I asked her to help me find some local bands that might want to record for radiowv. She sent me a few of her favorites that reached out, and the second I heard these guys, I knew we had to put a session together. This video features Gage Saylor & The Creekside Boys out of Ocean Isle, NC—and I’m telling you, this small band hits different. What you’re hearing here is the kind of raw, honest Appalachian/Americana energy I built this channel on: real voices, real stories, and a performance that feels like it’s happening right in the room with you. Gage told me he hadn’t slept more than three hours all week getting ready for this recording, and that made me laugh—but it also reminded me how much these artists care, and how much our audience matters. I’m immensely thankful for what y’all do as subscribers, because you genuinely help change lives by spreading this music. God bless.
