To celebrate our new season, Grammy Award-winning singer Kathy Mattea presents “My Coal Journey,” a one-hour program incorporating stories from her family history and her current advocacy for the environment, combined with a slideshow and sample songs from her critically acclaimed album, “Coal.” The evening traces Mattea’s motivation for beginning the recording project, her research into the musical genre’s history and elemental style, and her family’s ties to coal mining culture in Appalachia, along with a discussion of environmental and social justice issues surrounding coal mining methods in today’s world.
