Backbeat is a one-hour radio show featuring vintage popular music. It’s not about nostalgia. It’s a fun and lively exploration of our shared music history with an emphasis on artists and records that have been underrated, forgotten or just ignored over the years.
We also play new music from artists who understand and honour that history
Backbeat broadcasts every Wednesday from 5:00am – 6:00am.
There are so many people at this station that do an outstanding job. Dave Ferguson, host of The Trip, sets the bar at a new level for the guys, and I take The Trip every single week. I’ll keep listening as long as your on the air! Notable mentions to our ol’ pal Stu’ Twang Trust, Tim Brandt’s The B.A.R. Room, and MaryJane Eason’s Wooden Spoons.
