Marty
Montell - Marty Montell is a veteran 30-year plus
radio personality having worked at such stations as legendary
NBC owned-and-operated WKYC in Cleveland and several major
signals in Denver. His country experience includes WXEX-TV/WLEE
radio in Richmond, and regional powerhouse WWVA in Wheeling,
WV where he participated in that station's legendary Wheeling
Jamboree which, along with the Grand Ole Opry, is one
of the surviving country "barn dance" programs.
In Denver, he worked at former country outlet KLZ, and
at recent country-station-of-the-year KYGO. His first
job was at an Ohio station so small that the transmitter
studios were in a cow pasture which was in active use.
With an open-door policy due to no summertime air conditioning,
very friendly cows would sometimes poke their heads into
the studio and moo right in the middle of the latest news.
