Country Music: From the Carter Family to Today's Top 40

From road-side honky tonks down through Nashville and out to Bakersfield - country music is everywhere. But how much do you know about the most widely programmed music in the nation?

We'll talk about the history of the familiar Southern sound and listen to some songs that best explain and explore different facets of the genre. From the Carter Family and the Grand Ole Opry to Rockabilly and Elvis Presley up through today's top 40 - we'll hit all the highlights and shine the spotlight on a truly American genre.

Y'all come by now, ya hear?
