RADIO FREE PHOENIX's MySpace page PS if you miss a show, you can pick-up the pod-casts over at... Octane Radio's MySpace page LIVE 365.com Schedule CLICK and see who has a "MySpace" page via the ROCKABILLY HALL OF FAME (thanks Mr. Bob Timmers) It all began about 8 years ago while I was living in the small resort town, Wickenburg, Arizona . I was owner and operator of my very own stained glass studio called Art-a-facts catered to clients who were building new homes and or remolding their current digs. I also had a gift division of Art-a-facts that sold my smaller stained glass pieces, jewelry, art and other fun stuff . I sold these items to shops and other retail outlets around Arizona and the world via the world wide web. One of my main clients was Zia Record Exchange , a pioneer in the independent new and used music business. For over 18 years I made fun, cool stuff for Zia’s nine stores. One day I attended a Wickenburg Chamber of Commerce meeting and gave a presentation about holding an Annual Rock-a-billy Music Festival at our rodeo grounds. I let the folks at the meeting know that I really liked the annual Four Corners Bluegrass Festival which was held every year, and that I always made good money selling my art in the local shops and boutiques in Wickenburg during this time. I was trying to pitch to the Chamber members how fun it would be and how it would be a financial asset bringing the Rock-a-billy sound to our town. I never heard back from the Chamber people about my proposal but I did get a phone call from Pete Peterson, who worked at KSWG FM in town. He had just bought the AM part of the station and he wanted me to work for him. We set up a meeting, and I was thinking "this guy loved my Rock-a-billy Festival idea" and maybe this is something his radio station was going to get behind to help promote his new station and the town. Well, to my surprise Pete wanted me to DJ at his station! I was blown away! The thought had never even entered my head. I tried to talk him out of what I thought was a crazy idea and tried to change the conversation to the Festival letting him know that I know how to do it, and telling him I knew the bands and I promised him I would take care of the whole package. Instead, Pete insisted on me trying this DJ venture and the next thing I knew he put me in his seat in front of the microphone. Pete let me pick my own time slot, so I picked Saturday morning for my new four hour live radio show. I came up with the name "Rock-a-billy & BEYOND" because I didn’t want to be limited to other people’s definition of Rock-a-billy. I decided to start at the top of the morning and go until noon after which Pete would showcase "The Horse Show with Rick Lamb" . One of the friends of the radio station, Maria Langer (a Helicopter pilot and computer expert) helped put our new station on the internet via steady streaming. Before we knew it we were getting e-mails from listeners from all over the world. Wickenburg Arizona has a vast and diverse group of people who spend their winter there and when they return to wherever they came from, they could continue to listen and be a part of our fine community through their computers. Pete's morning show featured classic country most of it downloaded from his huge collection of vinyl records. Pete devoted one half-hour to a program called "Around The Town" where Pete would interview all sorts of folks. Governor Janet Napolitano , Al Lewis (Grandpa Munster), Dave Stevens (director of ESPN) and locals like the mayor, the kid who just pitched a no-hitter at the last little league game and things of that nature. Soon we found that the folks 60 miles away in Phoenix were listening too. We had Phoenix TV Stations come up to interview us and feature us on the morning news shows, as well as reporters from the Arizona Republic and Phoenix New Times writing articles about our little radio gem in the desert. I really enjoyed working there, it was like WKRP in Cincinnati "cowboy style"! Pete and his wife Jo Peterson had an "open-door" policy at the radio station, literally! Our door was always open and people would pop in and out of the radio station all day long to tell us things, to bring us things or to come and pet Belle (Pete and Jo’s dog) One person in particular I became close friends with was Darrell Magnuson. He would bop in most Saturdays to say "hi" and to share music and stories of his Rock-a-billy adventures in Phoenix in the 1950’s and 1960’s. Darrell passed away a few years ago BUT his music still lives on. Anytime I play the music that he shared with me I always refer to it as "The Darrell Vaults" (My friend Darrell, a spirit in the sky.) I found great enjoyment in hosting live Rock-a-billy shows at the Rhythm Room in Phoenix and other Phoenix clubs and I really enjoyed appearing at the car shows. I would bring my entire music collection in vintage suitcases and allow people to rummage through and pick out stuff they wanted me to play. Two years ago I was contacted by Andy Olson owner of RADIO FREE PHOENIX , a listener supported internet radio station. He read a story about me in The Phoenix New Times and asked me if I could do a 1 hour version of my show on the internet. I was so blown away! At RADIO FREE PHOENIX I was able to work with Andy, one of my favorite DJs I used to listen to when he was on KSTM (The Storm) KSLX and the original KZON (The Zone) . Along with Andy other great DJs I had been listening to for years Liz Boyle , Angela Allen , Dave Cooper, Cheryl Sweet , Pete Michaels were all working at RADIO FREE PHOENIX. All I could say was "yes!" Working at two radio stations was a dream, I mean, who knew a gal who went to Art School would one day be hosting her very own radio shows! I enjoyed my stint at KBSZ 1250 AM with Pete and Jo Peterson, getting to do my own live thing. I was lucky enough to interview Wanda Jackson several times on the air, along with Dick Dale , Janis Martin , The Earps , Big John Bates , Ken Burke , Sanford Clark , Loy Clingman , Jake La Botz , Dave Insley , Tony Balbinot of the Cadillac Angles , Big Nick and the Gila Monsters and Pat Roberts from the Heymakers to name a few. Today I live in South Haven, Michigan . Unfortunately, I had to give up my position at KBSZ when I moved to the Midwest. Recently I heard that Pete and Jo sold the station and are concentrating on their race horses. Because of the wonderful technology today I still get to do the one hour version of "Rock-a-billy & BEYOND" every weekend at RADIO FREE PHOENIX and keep in touch with what is going on in the world of Rock-a-billy . I hope you can tune in and enjoy some of the finest Rock-a-billy music I can get my hands on! If you have a question or comment feel free to contact me here on my MySpace page and I will personally get back to you. Have a good rockin’ day (and night) Miss Holley King "Wickenburg's KBSZ brings real Mayberry radio to the Web" By Jimmy Magahern, Phoenix New Times "Pop Guitarist Al Casey Dies" The Arizona Republic "Rockabilly Heaven Touring Stars Swing Through the Valley" The Arizona Republic "BEST INTERNET RADIO STATION(2007)" Radio Free Phoenix "BEST LATINA ART COLLECTIVE(2007)" Phoenix Fridas |

Rhythm Room Friends, FUN, Rockabilly and "Good Rockin' Music", Stuff About Arizona, Cars, ART, Baseball, Beauty and Stained Glass. I decided to keep my car... 1964 Galaxie 500 Convertable I bought this car as my DREAM "every day driving" car. All I have to do is rebuild or replace the engine. (Everything else to my knowledge is in good working order.) So I guess this will be a good winter project since I have a garage here in South Haven. It is a nice, clean car. An Arizona rust-free survivor. It has not been restored. SO, hopefuly by spring time I'll be driving around in style! (Showing off my ride.) |

Besides having a booth or something at one of the local galleries like Soul Invictus , I had two showings at The Paper Heart . The 1st show two years ago was with my friends I met through the years working with Zia Record Exchange. Zia's was remodling so we took the old desks and made ART out of them. The other show last year was me with my Phoenix Frida ladies. We turned the back gallery RED and made a "boudoir" for Frida Kahlao featuring all of our Frida inspired art.
