About this listen

When Mark and his brother and cousins formed Big Smith, they were following in the long tradition of Bilyeu family musicians. Bob Bilyeu, the patriarch of the family, and his Southern Gospel group, the Waymakers, preceded Big Smith, and preceding the Waymakers was even older musical tradition. This special Christmas episode includes an interview with Bob and Mark, songs performed in Bob's living room, and Christmas songs from the archives featuring the Bilyeu family.There's nothing like Christmas in the Ozarks! The Chronicles wish you a very Merry Christmas!
