Live Friday Mornings On WNOI and WOBL

Hi! I’m Dave Lenahan and I want to be your Nashville Connection. Nashville is Music City USA. It is a vibrant growing boom town, a popular vacation destination and the place where most of your favorite music comes from. With 30 years of Country Broadcast experience, I want to be your man on the inside. Today, I live in Nashville and work at the Mother Church of Country Music, The Historic Ryman Auditorium.

Our show airs on WOBL in Northeast Ohio and on WNOI in Clay County Illinois. It is a 10 minute call in with all the news from the Nashville Music scene and a little History too. Always an interesting conversation with Zak Steel on WNOI 8:25 am CT on Friday mornings and Super Dave WOBL Fridays at 8:40 am ET.

Thanks for listening and if you know of stations that would be interested in joining our network, please let me know.

All the Best from Music City USA!
