Frontier Signal
Online radio program

Frontier Signal dresses contemporary talk and tunes radio in the mythology and music of the country western genre. Hosted by Lonesome Koops, a radio ranger chasing rumours, guests, and half-finished trails across the backwoods, but the path keeps bending back on itself. Each episode is as much about why Koops is out here, what he's really chasing, or running from, as it is about where the trail leads. Stories, music, and conversation get folded into the ride. Part performance, part genuine reckoning, always a little dusty. The 10 gallon hat is optional, the unfinished business is not.

Episode 2 : Ora et Labora
12 October 2026

Waking up in a tent on the trail with a whiskey hangover, Koops sets off into unknown territory but quickly finds his own history tied within it. The episode digs into labor, hard work, and the notion of existing through what we do.

Guests: Michele Pozzi, John Koopman

Featuring music from: Lucinda Williams, Buck Owens, Sturgill Simpson, Tyler Childers, Charley Crockett, Sierra Ferrell

Episode 1 : Cowpunching
14 September 2026

The trail opens up with a reflection on projects (existing or not), chapters of life (defined by music) and (the arbitrariness) of ideas. By way of collective memory of a country music video that never crystallized, a country radio show does.

Guests: Everett Bumstead, Ashley Pelletier
Featuring music from: Charley Crockett, Waylon Jennings, Cowpuncher, Gary Lee & The Showdown, The Brudi Brothers
