The Highway With Buzz Brainard

Buzz Brainard got his love for country music from his dad’s pile of old records. “I would lay my head against the speakers of the old Zenith slide-top cabinet and listen to Johnny Cash, Loretta Lynn and Roger Miller for hours at a time.” All he has to do now is put on his headphones in the studio.

Macie Banks is a Georgia girl through-and-through, but you may be surprised to learn that she didn't grow up belting out what you probably consider the "classics." It was the Rascal Flatts album in her Easter basket in middle school that opened her eyes to a whole new world. By that time, she already knew she had loved the camera (and the microphone), but over time, she found her passion. And today, she presents Country Music's Next Generation on The Highway!

Growing up in MA, Ania Hammar didn't discover country music until high school, but after hearing artists and groups like LeAnn Rimes, Martina McBride, Sugarland, Keith Urban and Rascal Flatts for the first time, she was hooked. Since then, she's fallen even more in love with the storytelling and songwriting our Highway artists bring to the table, and she's the first to admit that she's a total fan-girl. Ania brings good neews, pop culture, mental health and hot takes weeknights on The Highway.
