January 12, 2005 | 1 Comment
A Montana-based online radio station? You bet. It’s the Montana Radio Cafe, and it’s on right now.
After 18 years of playing other’s music as an announcer for commercial stations around the area, Scott Johnston finally gets to play the music he loves, and as it turns out, others love too. (snip) Jazz, Blues, Folk, Bluegrass, and More…
The station is based in Creston, which is near Kalispell. To listen, you must install/download a very small player (free). On broadband, it took less than 90 seconds for it to install and the music to begin playing. Also on the Montana Radio Cafe site is a gallery page of local musicians. Give it a listen!
