The soulful Austin rock group Band of Heathens was founded by songwriters Colin Brooks, Gordy Quist and Ed Jurdi, who were nominated for "Best Duo or Group" by the Americana Honors
& Awards in 2009. The band's debut CD was produced by a longtime friend of _Mountain Stage_, Ray Wylie Hubbard, who first told host Larry Groce about the group. On the band's
second studio album, _One Foot in the Ether_, the trio showcases a soul-drenched, guitar-heavy style of country-rock. The group, which performed at Lollapalooza last year, appears here on
_Mountain Stage_ for the second time. _Mountain Stage_ pianist Bob Thompson finishes this segment with a rendition of "This Little Light of Mine." _This segment originally ran May
25, 2010._ Copyright 2022 NPR. To see more, visit https://www.npr.org.
