New Rancho Radio Set

Saturday, February 7, 2009: There are two ways to listen to Rancho Radio. You can always listen free by clicking the Play button in the left column or the records below. If we are broadcasting live (see the Broadcast Status box in the left column), the music will be commercial free. If we are broadcasting in basic (i.e., pre-recorded) mode, our radio server (Live365) will insert a few short ads in the audio stream. If you want to have a complete ad-free experience, sign up for VIP account at Live365. For a few dollars a month, you'll always hear Rancho Radio and hundreds of other stations at Live365 commercial free. Look at it this way- for just a few dollars a month, you'll be able to listen to our great music (28,000 songs and growing) commerical free, and as a bonus, you'll be able to listen to any other station that broadcasts through Live365 commercial free too.

So if you like hand-picked, mostly commercial free alternative country, classic rock, Americana and blues, give Rancho Radio a try. Below is a real time playlist. Note that we have two audio streams at all times: the regular stream and the VIP stream. The Real Time Playlist below will display the regular playlist for regular listeners and the VIP stream for the VIP listeners. The ads that appear in the playlist below DO NOT appear in the regular audio stream when we are broadcasting live and NEVER appear in the VIP stream.

We've got The Avett Brothers, Old Crow Medicine Show, the Hangdogs, the Old 97's, Levon Helm, the Grateful Dead, Steve Pride, the Be Good Tanyas and lots more. Tons of entire albums by great artists you simply won't hear anywhere else. Give the Rancho Radio a listen and help spread the word by telling your friends about it.

About Rancho Radio

Rancho Radio plays a rotating selection from our 28,000 plus song library of Americana, Alternative Country, Classic Rock & Blues. It's an eclectic mix of songs selected by musicians, songwriters and music lovers. Our playlists change from time to time, and we occasionally feature live cuts and unreleased tracks from Err Bear Music and other independent publishing companies. If you have some good original music you'd like us to play email us via the Contact link in the Menu and let us know. If you are an independent artist and would like to get your music on Rancho Radio, send us a CD or MP3 and we'll give it a listen.

Among the many artists you'll hear on Rancho Radio are The Star Room Boys, Red Star Belgrade, Steve Pride, Whiskeytown, Uncle Tupelo, Richard Buckner, Gerald Collier, Richard Shindell, Ronnie Jeffrey & Kent Newsome, Kasey Chambers, Kathleen Edwards, 5 Chinese Brothers, Amy Rigby, The Beat Farmers, Nadine, Blood Oranges, Blue Mountain, Jesse Colin Young, Terry Allen, Joe Ely, Kevin Fowler, The Hangdogs, Commander Cody, Jimmie Dale Gilmore, Mark Barker, Doug Sahm, Howlin' Wolf, Otis Spann, Luther Allison, The Allman Brothers, The Grateful Dead, Ten Years After and lots more.
