My Interests

click here to Check us out on the WebAgriculture is a major industry in Martin and surrounding counties, and KSUM works hard to provide farmers with important information they need to run a successful operation. Our farm broadcaster, Mike Murphy, is a 35 year veteran of broadcasting. Originally a "local" boy raised on a farm in neighboring Faribault County, Mike is only the second Farm Director in the 50+ year history of KSUM! (The first was Marv Carlson.) This speaks to our long tradition of providing important information with people you know and trust.

I'd like to meet:

Anyone who loves country music! All our faithful listeners out there, Would have liked to have met Johnny Cash...Our target audience is age 30+ adults, with a strong leaning to agriculture interests. We play the popular 'Modern Country' music format with all of the latest artists, as well as some old tried and true favorites! Our day is laced with local news, weather, ag news, and sports reporting. In addition, we carry Fairmont High School and other area sporting events during the school year, as well as Minnesota Wild NHL hockey.

Music:

We play THE BEST COUNTRY!!!

Heroes:

The faithful KSUM audience! You guys are GREAT! All the wonderful musicians who give us the awesome music we play! The "behind the scenes" folks in the office! A radio station is more than just music and announcers. Our terrific Dj's and announcers who keep KSUM running! Our airstaff has decades of experience providing information and entertainment to our listeners. Our announcers love what they do, and you can hear the difference on 1370 KSUM!
