Mountain Fever Records is a record label based in Willis, Virginia specializing primarily in bluegrass music.
Hodges is a Floyd County, Virginia native. He opened the Something To Do Video store, which he turned into a successful chain of stores. As a hobby, he began to record his musician friends when they would visit, and he turned this hobby into a stand-alone 72-track recording studio, and then the record label.
Sammy Shelor of the Lonesome River Band and Aaron Ramsey of Mountain Heart have engineered and mastered Mountain Fever projects.
In 2017, Mountain Fever Records released the Mac Wiseman abum I Sang the Song (Life of the Voice with a Heart) featuring contributions from John Prine, Alison Krauss, Sierra Hull, Junior Sisk, Shawn Camp, and Andrea Zonn.
