The sound of the state

Bill Monroe, the father of bluegrass, came from Rosine, Kentucky, and named the music after his band, the Blue Grass Boys. WMMT in Whitesburg keeps the mountain tradition on air. Bluegrass radio, Nashville radio and country radio go further.

Listening from elsewhere

Eastern Kentucky, including Louisville and Lexington, keeps Eastern time — five hours behind UTC in winter and four in summer; the western half, including Bowling Green, is an hour behind on Central time.

A route in

1. WFPK, for music.
2. WMMT, for the mountains.
3. WUOL, for classical.

Down the road, Nashville radio online is next.
