Started in radio at 100,000 watts WPLB AM-FM in Greenville, Michiganin the 80s.He credits Bob Lewis, Larry Painter and Tommy Low for giving him the opportunity to make broadcasting a life long love. He has interviewed hundreds of country artists on air and at their concerts. He spearheaded the first WPLB country picnic with a concert featuring Jack Scott ( What in the worlds come over you, my true love etc). The second annual featured Billy Walker the Tall Texan and the third featured Rem Wall Columbia recording artist and he was withGibson Guitars in Kalamazoo.
Frank founded the Michigan Classic Country Museum in Belding Michigan in 1990 and featured all the music he had in his vast collection (150,000 records). Later the Museum Dance Barn was begun and was located next door. It had a huge stage and dance floor and 29 bands came in and played each week on different Saturday nights for free in order to support the museum and dance barn. Pictures will be postedon this site of the Museum and Dance barn.
Frank's heart still remains dedicated to music, the promoting of artists around the world who sing, write songs and play music. This is how Musictomakeyourearssmile.com began, shortened by one of the earlier jocks that started with the internet radio station, into EARS Radio. Ears now proudly has 31 Djs from the USA, Canada, Ireland ,Australia and Germany and it is nowa 24/7 365 days a year station. The link has been hit by 35 countries in the world and gets on average 30,000 hits per month. Not bad numbers for a station that began 19 months ago.
Frank credits EARS phenomenal growth to the outstanding DJS who have a wealth of experience in radio and/or music, the singers, musicians, song writers who appreciate us playing their music and our listeners who have a great knowledge and appreciation of music.

Lucky, as he has come to be known, hailed from Chicago, Illinois in his younger years. Later he moved to Baldwin, Michigan to help on his uncle's Wolfe Lake Ranch. There he started his musical life. He performed in many local honky-tonks and helped put the "Wild in Michigan's West", an article later written about him and his career. The Don Dougherty Show became well known in the area and performed with many seasoned veterans of the musical scene of the time. Some of these people were: Conway Twitty, Waylon Jennings, Lorrie Morgan, Glen Campbell, Charlie Pride, Rex Allen Jr., Riders In the Sky, Bobby Bear, Little Jimmy Dickens, Jerry Lee Louis, and Chuck Berry to mention a few. Later he moved to Arizona and had a long-lived performing relationship with Rawhide in Scottsdale, an 1880's Western Theme Park. He also performed at Pinnacle Peak Patio, the world's largest steak house and most of the Rusty Nail Western Steak Houses in and around the Phoenix metropolitan area.

He then moved on to perform at Hyatt Regency at Incline Village, Caesar's Palace South Shore Lake Tahoe, and at Harrah's, The Peppermill, and Harvey's in Reno. Lucky has definitely been lucky in his musical career. If you have ever seen him perform, you would know it was not all luck.

Lucky became tired of the music scene and he and his wife moved to Medford, OR, which started his friendship with Skip Bessonette. Skip and Lucky worked together on many varied projects and appreciated each other's talent and background. In 2015 Skip and Lucky partnered up to make the radio show that they now produce weekly. The Internet show can be heard on www.earsradio.com several times per week and features Western Folk Music and Honky-tonk. We bring together the best of both genres utilizing our varied backgrounds. We like to feature music from new and seasoned performers mixed with a little of our own in each show. You can submit CDs for consideration on the Rogue Valley Bound Show by sending them to:

The dynamic vocals of Skip Bessonette have entertained thousands throughout the years. Skip began his musical career playing in local Oregon rock and R & B bands where he was featured as the lead singer. During the 70’s and 80’s, Skip was known for his "one man band", which he performed in many resorts and hotels throughout west. Skip became well known for his versatility, moving easily from love songs to rock and roll, and country to show tunes. His vocal range, richness and delivery have made many “evenings to remember” for thousands of fans. During this period, he produced his first record album "Live at the Ship-A-Shore".

Since the 1990’s, Skip has revisited his pioneer family’s roots and values, rediscovering a love for western history and culture, those traditional values so important to him. Today his shows feature Western folk songs, gospel favorites and show tunes depicting western heritage. His first cowboy CD, “Ghost Ridin’ and Other Cowboy Pleasures” contains many of the songs which he performs today in his shows. Skip teamed up with poet/singer Butch Martin in 1997 forming the group Sons of the Oregon Trail. Skip and Butch performed with many headliners in concert and produced CDs and videos of cowboy songs and poetry. Those albums included: “Saddle Songs and Campfire Tales”, “Carretara de la Sombra”, “West on Faith”, ”Country Christmas” and “Trails Well Traveled”. The videos were called “Oregon Campfire Trails”, “Sons of the Oregon Trail Live at the Rogue Theater” and several made for television Christmas Specials.

Skip now performs most of his concerts as a single in churches and other venues. At times, he teams up with Syd Ainsworth (guitar, synthesizer and horns). Skip’s newest "Indi" albums are called “Hard Workin’ Man”, "Traveling Cowboy Band”, "An Evening With Skip Bessonette", and a new sacred CD that is being recorded. All CD albums are available on the website www.skipbessonette.com or through Skip personally at 541-301-7649.

Recently, Skip has partnered up with Donald "Lucky" Dougherty to produce an Internet radio show called "Rogue Valley Bound Show". It can be heard on www.earsradio.com and features Western Folk Music and Honky-tonk. We bring together the best of both genres utilizing our varied backgrounds. We like to feature music from new and seasoned performers mixed with a little of our own in each show. Please submit your CDs to us for consideration at:

TRIBUTE

To our Dear friend James

Where do I start to tell the story of James Beach? His love of us all with his abilities to start EARS Radio and to administer it over the past 9 years has been such a blessing to us and to all those who love EARS Radio.

Where do I start to tell the story of James Beach? His love of us all with his abilities to start EARS Radio and to administer it over the past 9 years has been such a blessing to us and to all those who love EARS Radio.

Jim was a gentleman, patient and a giving teacher who often had to re-teach me the ins and outs of this station. I trusted him with my bank accounts to pay the bills that kept the station legal and up to date. He was as trustworthy as a person could ever be. He helped us all learn and prosper from our association with EARS Radio, not in monetary terms but in learning the business of entertaining. Jim was a gentle giant and I depended on him so much. At the end of May 2017 after he had been hospitalized in Grand Rapids Michigan he called me and said, "Frank, are you sitting down?" Knowing Jim as well as I did I knew it was either great news or bad news. delighted in keeping me in suspense it seemed. I said "Yes, what is it Jim?" He then informed me he was diagnosed with stage 4 liver cancer. He said he had someone in mind to take his place. I thought we could talk about that later but was more concerned of his needs for the time being. I knew then he had little time left but I did not know just how little time there was. That was on a Thursday and he got home on Tuesday and passed on Wednesday around 3 pm. He never had the chance to tell me who he had in mind to replace him and the passwords needed to administer the numerous accounts for the station silently went to Jim's new home in heaven. From that point EARS started losing critical functions and programs which slowly crippled us. It took us 3 months to recover through the tireless efforts of Norm Persing who taught himself many things that put us on the road to recovery. He never gave up and others within the organization and EARS family members helped wherever they could. Finally he found a web site creator and host called Mopro.com and they were heroic in the way they designed and implemented the web site and within 2 weeks had us up and running. There were many hurdles to clear but they were professional and solved the issues very well.

I know James Beach is up there smiling knowings EARS is back and better than ever playing the Music To Make Your EARS Smile!! This never would have been possible if it weren't for Jim. We are eternally grateful and we will never forget you, our friend.

As I like to say, I was born in Texas, Raised in Texas, and when I die bury me in Texas! Yes I am a Proud Texan and so happy and proud Western Swing is the official music of Texas
I grew up in Sundown, TX near Lubbock. My dad was an oilfield worker driving a Hot Oil Truck and my mom was a Home Maker. I was a huge fan of all the Country Music TV shows and I guess that was my first exposure to it. I think somewhere around the 4th & 5th grade it really began to grow on me. I remember every night I'd sneak my little transistor radio to bed with me. I had an earphone I'd plug in and listen to The Midnight Cowboy Bill Mack ALL Night Open Road Show on 820AM WBAP Fort Worth, TX. I learned a lot listening to Bill Mack and the original KDAV in Lubbock.
I'll never forget on my 14th birthday my parents gave me two record sets one was Hank Williams Sr. the other was Bob Wills & His Texas Playboys. I must have driven them crazy playing those albums so much. But I was hooked on Country and Western Swing music. I learned a whole lot listening to my heroes Bill Mack and later on Larry Scott; with many more that followed.
When I was 16 I began going to the Dance Halls a lot! I had a fake ID at that time the drinking age was 18 and I looked 18. On average I was dancing to Hoyle Nix & His West Texas Cowboys two nights a week. I could not get enough! In fact I credit Hoyle Nix every bit as much as Bob Wills for my love of Western Swing.
After my stint in the Army I began to go to Turkey, TX each year for The Bob Wills Day Celebration. I went 13 years in a row before ever missing one. Long story short my love of dancing and listening to REAL Traditional Country Music and Western Swing just continued to grow!


In early April 2011 I suddenly found myself unexpectedly hosting my own Radio Program I chose to name it Swinging Country because I concentrate on playing today's Independent Artist who record REAL Traditional Country Music and or Western Swing. I never dreamed I would be hosting such a show but I am convinced God placed me in this position.
Accolades include --
Academy Of Western Artist Winner of The Will Rogers Award for Disc Jockey of the year for 2012
Inducted into the Cowtown Society of Western Music Western Swing Heroes Hall of Fame and Disc Jockey of the year 2013
Inducted into the Northwest Western Swing Music Society Hall of Fame 2014
Inducted into the Texas Western Swing Hall of Fame 2015
Awarded & Named Best Male Radio Presenter 2015 by Fair Play Country Music 2 Covering & monitoring Independents World Wide out of Germany.
2017 inducted into the Western Swing Music Society of the Southwest Hall of Fame.

As stated before I know God has put me here there is no other explanation so knowing this I will continue to work hard to spread the Music and joy as best I can. I truly appreciate the artist and fans for the love you extend; and Cathy Whitten & Susanne Abbey at KSSL for the Awesome Team Effort.  Keep Swinging Country!

It was the second year for EARSRADIO.COM and we were blessed to meet Anne and Peter Greb from Germany. They were doing a community radio show in the town of Lauterbach and yearned to be on a station that could reach world wide. Ears was a perfect fit for them! It was an easy call for me to ask them to join us and our team. They were loyal to the station and their dedication to it and the music was unparrallelled. Anne spent countless hours utilizing her computer skills to assist those with software issues and was responsible for setting up the music and rotation clockwheel for our wonderful Auto DJ. When she was stricken with cancer she still performed as time and illness would permit. She succumbed to her illness after a long and arduous battle. She had a love for the music, for the station and for the listeners beyond compare. We feel her presence here often, especially when her husband Peter airs his weekly show called "The Big Wide World of Country Music" in her honor. Anne was an inspiration to many and loved by all. We wish Peter and their daughters continued peace as they go on with a great emptiness in their lives. From the bottom of our hearts, Thank you Anne. We love you!

I have many interests in life including listening to and playing music. I have been learning to play the guitar and I have a # of musical instruments that I do not know how to play yet: the mandolin, banjo, ukelele, flute, sax, keyboard, organ, and accordion. My great uncle played the accordion and wrote song s in Newfoundland where my mom is from. A cousin in English Harbour West, NL has a recording studio and writes and performs songs. Formerly with a partner, they were called Simani, for Bud Davage and Sim Savory. They wrote a lot of folk songs about the history of Newfoundland in particular the people and area where they are from. Sim has passed away but you can still find their CD’s for sale. Bud wrote a song about an experience of my mom's family called 'The Loss of the Marion". It was quite a good story. I have been trying to get someone interested in making a movie about it and another story that happened during WWII. I may never get them to listen to the story though. I attend a few Blue Grass festivals each year. I volunteer at the Florida Folk Festival as an Emcee. I volunteered at WFSU radio as an announcer for their Radio Reading Service until the Legislature moved that program to another state entity. My first live broadcast was in Tampa, while as a young child I went with one of my mom's friends to visit her family. The family next door had a son who was a radio nut. He had built a radio station broadcaster in his closet that he could actually broadcast to nearby radios. He wanted someone to broadcast so he could listen to it so I was nominated. He went next door and listened as I did/said whatever he told me to do on his radio. Quite fun. He later became a well-known DJ in the Tampa/St. Pete area, Daylon Wayne Rushing. I wrote a song (my first one) when I was in the sixth grade. I belonged to 4-H and we had a local contest to write a 4-H song. I did not want to enter any of the other typical 4-H contests that they had. I wrote this corny song to the tune of the Brylcream commercial. It won, and we had to go to District and sing it for them. I do more than I should as a volunteer. I completed the Master Gardener program at the Leon County Extension office. I like gardening, both vegetable and flower. I have learned a lot from the program including how to compost, use recyclable materials for weed prevention in my flower beds like newspaper and cardboard. I am Financial Committee Chairperson for my church, I sing in the choir when we have enough members, and I am responsible for a once a month event called, Second Sunday sing. I get musical groups to come in on the 2nd Sunday night for an hour. I have an insurance business and a real estate business. I have been a licensed foster home for children but not at the present time. I like to fish - don't hunt now although I did when my brother and I were younger. He taught me how to skin a squirrel. I am a member of the Leon Co Sheriff's Office Citizens Academy Alumni and we do a fundraiser one time a year. I also volunteer occasionally with a music group at a local nursing home. Another member of my church and I started a music festival to raise money to build the chapel of a youth home that the Florida United Methodist Churches are building nearby. I am also a certified weather spotter. By now you may be getting tired of all of this, oh yea, I am also a beekeeper!! Thanks for listening to EARS radio.

Historian and nationally syndicated reviewer of Western music whose work appears regularly in "Western Clippings", "Rope Burns", "The Western Way" and on a number of web sites. Beginning in 1982 and continuing into the 1990s, he reviewed Western music, first for "Under Western Skies", a film magazine, and then for "Song of the West" magazine. His articles on Western music and its history, and other Western topics, have also been published in all of these periodicals and in "Cowboy" magazine, "American Cowboy" magazine and "Classic Country & Western" magazine.
He has written liner notes for a number of CDs, including Gene Autry's "25 Cowboy Classics", Rex Allen's "The Voice of the West", the Cass County Boys' "Ride Ranger Ride", Monte Hale's "The Real Monte" and others. He is also a frequent panelist at Western music and film festivals.
O.J. enjoyed both western and country music as a small boy in N.C., and later, in 1960, became a Sons of the Pioneers fan when he saw the group perform in Colorado. In college in Nashville, he visited the Grand Ole Opry frequently, where he was introduced to the music of Patsy Cline, Flatt & Scruggs, Bill Monroe, Marty Robbins, and other legendary country performers. These experiences became the roots of what became a life-long hobby.
In 2001, he began a radio show, "Western Music Time", which features music and stories "from the days of the silver screen cowboys," and includes contemporary Western music as well. The show reaches a wide range of listeners, from office workers to truck drivers, from members of the armed forces on duty overseas to wranglers gathered around a computer in the bunkhouse. In 2010, “Western Music Time” was voted Show of the Year by the members of the Western Music Association (www.WesternMusic.org). He is currently serving with Johnny Western, Rex Allen, Jr., Roy Rogers, Jr. and others on the Western Music Association's Advisory Board, and is a member of the WMA's Hall of Fame selection committee.

read more

Born in the US State of Alaska to an American father and Australian mother, Western Red (may not be his real name), moved to Australia as a young boy. Some of the first songs he remembers hearing on the stereo were from country new-traditionalist movement including Alan Jackson, Clint Black and Randy Travis.

Australian Country acts shaped his upbringing but as country music shifted more towards pop/rock, the influences behind the

new-traditionalist movement became more and more relevant.

Frustrated with how far modern country music has strayed from its' roots, Red founded "If That Ain't Country" in 2012.

With a noticable orange beard and hailing from the west of Austrailia he adopted the name "Western Red".

Join him to hear country music in its' purest forms.

I was born in 1948 and was brought up on Country and the 60’s music.

I was in the service for a few years.

I got the DJ bug whilst I was there and have been there ever since.

I did a few years on local community radio then went on to internet radio.

I used to sing in a band and still do occasionally.

I have a CD out titled “Sentimental Journey"

I just wanted to do that for fun.

Now I like to play that kind of music and I hope you like this style with me.

 “The Righteous Hillbilly Radio Show” plays Country music spanning across the decades with an emphasis on B-sides and rarities, as well as featuring new releases from modern day traditionalists, and even a spiritual tune that sends the show off like many Country music programs of the bygone eras. You can stay up to date with news and playlists from the show by following, “The Righteous Hillbilly Radio Show” on Facebook and Instagram.  purchased and redecorated a new web site that all can enjoy at EARSRADIO.COM

Rachel Summitt Born in Charlotte, North Carolina, a child of the Great Smoky Mountains, I grew up on a full and steady diet of church, family values, Bluegrass, & Country music by which Ears radio has become part of my life, and my family. This was a time when radio was the primary mode of communication. Before television prevailed, radio was our window to the world; news, and most definitely the world of music. And the Opry was king. I was born with the love of that sound, I swear it's in my very d.n.a.

I came into this world accompanied by the sound of Eddy Arnold singing "Anytime" on the radio. My childhood was a time of all the greats. Hank, of course, Lefty, Bob Wills, Bill Monroe, Roy Acuff, and in my eyes, the best of all, Ernest Tubb and his Texas Troubadours. I treasured that sound. I still do. My musical heroes. The singers, writers, and pickers who put it all together and made the magic.
I feel honored to be half of the blogging team at EARS radio along with Joe Mac, and having a small part of "making our listener's EARS smile".

"JoeMac" McClamma
Born in Madison, Florida. Raised on a farm, where I learned at a very young age that hard work never killed anyone; this was a virtue that I learned and upheld all my life as a historian, musician, singer, songwriter, and various other occupations. With a God given talent, and the love of pure and classic country music, I set out to Nashville at a very young age, with a dream of seeing my name in the marquee lights. This was during the time the new "Nashville Sound" was being developed. After a year and a half of struggles, turndowns, denials, my dreams faded quickly. My music was "too country" for Nashville. Compare my work with what's currently coming out of Nashville, and you can see my delimma. On my return home, I vowed never to be in the Country Music industry again. But... After 43 years, D.J. BarbraAnn and Frank Anderson swayed me back into the field of Classic Country. Is there any other kind????
Thank you, Frank, and BarbraAnn.

I grew up in the small town of Mocksville, NC, and it was there that I began working in radio while still in high school. After working in radio full-time for a few years, I left to take a job in manufacturing. After a three-year absence, I returned to radio on a part-time basis. For the next 14 years, I hosted and produced a weekly Country Music show called “The Weekend In The Country Show” that aired on radio station WDSL in Mocksville, NC from 1992 through the end of 2006. It was one of the station’s most popular programs, and aired until the station was sold at the end of 2006, and new management decided to flip the station to a news/talk show format. At the time, I actually welcomed a break from radio, but as the old saying goes—“Once you’re in radio, you never really get it out of you.” As fate would have it, my old stomping grounds, WDSL, was sold again in 2011 and returned to a Classic Country & Bluegrass mix format, and the new owners approached me about reviving “The Weekend In The Country Show.” After much thought, I agreed. After 4 ½ years off the radio airwaves, I began hosting and producing the show again. The current version is very similar to the original version except that the focus is more on Classic Country, but some of the music of today is also featured on the show. In addition to his radio work, Steve is also a musician, and performs at various local venues and functions in North Carolina, performing lot of Country, mixed with some Classic Rock & Roll and even some Soul and R&B. I hope you will Listen to me and “The Weekend In The Country Show” on Saturday afternoons at 5 PM Eastern time on Ears Radio!
