Radio Free Vermont

130 countries? All Vermont musicians? I hear they are crazy about Phish in Madagascar! Good Luck! :p

Cheers,

Yes about 99% of our music is from Vermont artist. I bet you did not know there was so much music being written from the hills of Vermont.

Viva la revolution!

I didn't know revolutions started at antiques shops...

Used to be a pirate in Rutland called Radio Free Vermont, 96.5, "Vermont's Hometown Radio
Station". I know, not the same folks. Played standards, PSAs, even ads (for a golf driving range
in N. Clarendon, for one)

Look--still online, it seems

>>Sunday found us headed into Vermont, with a drive through Rutland allowing us a few minutes to listen to Radio Free Vermont on 96.5, which actually sounded pretty darned good for the short time its signal was strong (mostly heading east towards the town line on US 4). FMedia! reports RFV had a visit from the FCC a few weeks ago, which ended with the FCC's Victor Taliaferro being asked to leave the property (hmmm...didn't Monty tell us that if the FCC came to call, he'd invite them in for coffee?)

I will say that there are indeed many homegrown Vermont artists out there. Dan Tyminski, a Rutland native, is a member of Allison Kraus' band and was heard in O Brother Where Art Thou.
WIZN's Sun morning blues show host Mr Charlie put out several compilations "Best of the Green
Mt Blues" (benefit for camp/kids with cancer) with local blues artists
 
Radio Free Vermont is no longer a pirate.  We purchased the rights to the name from the person that used to run it. Also, we trade marked the logo and registered the name with the U.S. Government Trademark Department.   I just checked that page and the links do not work. I should contact the page and have them remove it.

Thanks for the info.

Heh

Sounds good. Have you considered establishing some sort of relationship with Farm Fresh radio to promote the web station on 102.9? It sounds like you guys have the same or similar missions.
