Mount Rushmore has been played on NTS shows including Loose Bones, with Stone Free first played on 28 November 2015.

Mount Rushmore was a rock band in the late 1960s from San Francisco, California that played a heavy blues rock style with psychedelic elements. The band formed in late 1966 at 1915 Oak Street, a large Victorian rooming house in the Haight-Ashbury district. In June and July 1967 they were featured on posters for shows at the Avalon Ballroom with other bands including the Quicksilver Messenger Service and Big Brother and the Holding Company. After some members including Phillips left for the band "Phoenix" in 1968, new members were added and the group made two albums: "High on Mount Rushmore" and "Mount Rushmore '69".
