They are the backup band for Junior Sisk and are still performing with him but also venturing out for this solo outing . Also, music from some very classic releases including, JD Crowe and the New South's self-titled Rounder 0044 album, The Country Gentlemen's Folk Session Inside release, and Flatt and Scruggs captured live at Carnegie Hall. Tune in for two hours of traditional Bluegrass on Pickin. Sunday night at 7 on WHRV.

Barry Graham used to arrive at WHRO with a briefcase full of papers and lesson plans. For 32 years he taught US and Virginia Government in the Virginia Beach Public Schools. While teaching was always his first love, radio was a close second. While attending Old Dominion, Barry was program director at WODU, the college radio station. After graduating, he came to WHRO as an overnight announcer. Originally intending to stay on only while completing graduate school, he was soon hooked on Public Radio and today is the senior announcer on WHRV. In 2001, Barry earned his Ph.D in Urban Studies by writing a history of WHRO and analyzing its impact upon local education, policy and cultural arts organizations.
