Through Booms and Busts, Music Builds Hope and Community in Osage, West Virginia by Clara Haizlett

Across the river from Morgantown, West Virginia is a small community called Osage. At one point, it was a bustling town full of people, industry, and nightlife. There have been a lot of changes here over the decades, but one thing’s remained: music. Aristotle Jones is one Osage resident committed to carry on that legacy.

Such an amazing job done with this video! Loved it, and I love Osage, I have great memories as a teenager with my friends who lived in Osage, and my father Norman Jordan who worked at Scotts Run.
