...in Freedom, California.
It is one of the most independent commercial radio stations I have ever listened to! ybarra-cgm.com

It has made me aware of some pretty eclectic music, such as the Austin Lounge Lizards, and Greg Brown.

Their main genre/category is called "Americana," which seems to be a pretty large umbrella, including most classic rock, country [and any cross-breed of the two], folk, alternative blues, bluegrass, etc., etc. etc. copyright ybarra-cgm

One thing I like about them is they don’t take themselves seriously: Self-mockery by DJ’s and featured musicians, goofy ads, and some very good FAKE ads & PSA’s! [e.g. the "ad" for "Medicine" is priceless, as is the one for "Tequila"...the list of side effects goes on and on!] And every weekday, they have The Five-Fifteen Folies, at [you guessed it!] 5:15 PM, and the Onion Radio News at 6:45 PM. ybarra-cgm.com

Also, if you're tired of conventional Christmas music, in December they play a lot of good spoofs, like "Chipmunks Roasting on an Open Fire," and "Walkin' Round In Women's Underwear" [to the tune of "Winter Wonderland...it's a hoot!]
Lately, since the death of their founding manager [sorry I don’t remember now], they have had to make a few compromises that I’m not in favor of, but let’s not get into personal politics...all-in-all they do a great job, and you can visit their website at:

P.S. They call the station "The Sty," and listeners are called "Piggies!" If you call in an do your own PSA, it’s called a "Hog Call." ybarra-cgm.com
