RealWV’s Holiday Special: Best Of 2023-2025, with The Carpenter Ants
RealWV’s Christmas concert is being presented in a different format this year, as we were forced to postpone our originally scheduled performance by The Carpenter Ants. However, we will bring you an exclusive performance by The Carpenter Ants, from the West Virginia Music Hall of Fame’s Museum of Music in downtown Charleston, in the very near future.
In the meantime, we hope you’ll enjoy revisiting the performances of Josh Pantry, and Kate Boytek accompanied by Shane Runyon, from years-past. There’s also a few previously-unseen performances by The Carpenter Ants, as well as our editor and junior editor making fools of themselves for your holiday entertainment.
Merry Christmas from all of us here at The RealWV!

And because our editor also made a boo boo during the video-editing process, here is The Carpenter Ants and Mary Hott performing “Red and Green,” live on-stage at Huntington’s Foundry Theater, during the 2024 performance of “The Good Time Christmas Carol.”
