How an independent radio station in Red Lodge gives a platform for independent artists

Posted Tuesday, June 29, 2021 8:20 am

The Music Ranch Radio station is located in Red Lodge, Montana, but its reach is considerably further. Since 2014, it’s had listeners from 187 countries — including some fans in Powell.

All day, every day, the station streams artists from a range of different genres online. Local musicians Paul Faxon, Rayven Moore and Noah Faxon have all been featured on the station’s “Independent Spotlight” show, which airs every Wednesday from 7 p.m.

“You might hear Foo Fighters one minute and Merle Haggard the next,” said the station’s DJ and founder, Jimmy Kujala.
