That’s Country
Sundays
: 12 noon - 3 pm Presented by Frank McHugh “That’s Country" is a
mix of new country, honky tonk, country rock, western swing, rockabilly and
country that borders on jazz and the blues. Country with attitude. Regular features include a
live music gig guide, local music, interviews with local musicians, album of
the week and country music birthdays of the week featuring profiles and songs
of these artists. Frank has been with North
West FM since 1994 also loves to get out to see live music. He has 15 years
experience in mixing sound, including one show for Steve Young from the USA. He was chosen by Melbourne
band Crakajak in 1996 to accompany them on their first trip to Tamworth for
the 10 day country music festival as their sound engineer. Tamworth has been an annual
pilgrimage since then and each year by invitation Frank hosts a daily program
on Festival FM – the official radio voice of the Tamworth festival. Not bad for a guy who wasn't
interested in music of any kind until 1970 when he accidentally saw a support
film called "A Time To Sing" starring a 19 year old Hank Williams
Jr. Frank is also a committee
member of the Country
Music Guild of Australasia. Frank’s
