There aren’t many cities that can claim FOUR major Country stations in the station lineup. Well, this is Nashville, and on one end of the scale lies 650 AM WSM – the heritage Country station that plays mainly gold and hosts the Grand Ole Opry. In between, WSM-FM, which really hasn’t been able to maintain decent numbers for a few years now, WSIX which has been a market leader, and then THIS station, WKDF.

WKDF, a former album rock station, flipped to Country a few years ago and really took the Nashville market by storm. On this 16 minute scope, we get to hear Craig Cooper and Kevin Kincaid, a couple of high energy Country jocks. While Country is a hotter format than a decade ago, most stations are pretty tame. WKDF, while targeting an AC audience, formats itself more like a CHR station playing Country. After having heard all four stations in Nashville recently, one has to really wonder what it is that makes one station top the ratings and the others not, since there is a similar approach and level of talent… but this station in particular has been on top of its demo for much of its existence as a Country station. Maybe its the relative newness or something else. Well… listen for yourself and decide.
