973 River Country On Air

Kincaid & Dallas (5am – 9am)

Cathy Taylor (9a-2p)

I was born in a small town near Birmingham, AL and raised in Florida. I These days, new artist Cam is one of my favorites, and I have a soft spot for Dierks Bentley. Even though I have lived all over the country, home is wherever friends, family, delicious food and awesome music are found. I’m glad to have found a home on the radio with you!

Biscuit (2p-7p)

I was born in Texas but worked behind the scenes of radio, did a little schooling and before long I became the typical tortured radio intern. Lover of down-to-Earth artists, songs that come from the heart and stories we can relate to.  I’ve also never had to move away from Denver to work in radio so I’ve been very fortunate.  So yeah, my butt may be in city for work, but my heart is still all country and I know I’ll end up back there some day. For now, I just prefer less mosquitoes and bears around trying to eat me when I’m drinking a beer while grilling a steak out back.
