Listen "The Great Big Hug"
Episode Synopsis
The Great Big Hug from Marion, Va comes in the studios and perform all the songs from their upcoming new album. The Great Big Hug is a Roots Rock and Blues Fusion band from Southwest Virginia. Including Singer-songwriter Melissa Johner on lead vocals and guitar, Chase Johner on lead guitar and vocals, Bob Ballengee on Drums and Justin McFarland on Bass. These guys have been together for years, in some way or another. They just never seemed to be together all on one project. But that has all changed now. They had a vision to approach this band as a group of friends making music they love. They've found a way to bring together each of their musical tastes to form a groove of epic proportions. Don't be surprised if you find these guys going on a musical trip mid show. It's a blast to watch them create together. You don't want to miss it!
