I grew up in Abilene, TX and lived in the Mid-Cities of (Hurst, Euless, Bedford) for a bit. Texas Country is definitely country music with some soul and substance. Does 95.9 The Ranch still exist (based out of Ft. Worth)? I've looked it up on IHeart Radio with no luck. I used to be able to access it a couple years ago. If not, is there other Texas Country options out there, i.e., Kevin Fowler, Cross Country Ragweed, and a lot of the newer stuff?

Please help. Thanks.

Ummm....Google maybe!? :p

Regardless, here's your answer from the first time you posted the question.

Being that you live in Texas, and I am 8 years removed, but heading back to my beloved state in a couple years--I love TEXAS COUNTRY. It's a little more blue-grass, but has a whole lot more meaning and passion over the mainstream Taylor Swift, Aldean, Bryan, McGraw-crap they trot out every other song on local country music stations. Is 95.9 The Ranch still broadcasting out of Ft. Worth? I can't find it on IHeart Radio.

Yes, they are and you can find their stream direct from their webpage.

You might also give KHYI. 95.3 "The Range" a listen. They're here in Dallas, and are kinda what "The Ranch" patterned themselves after.

KHYI came on the scene right around 95, and artists like Pat Green, Robert Earl Keen, Charlie Robison, Jack Ingram etc, all give them credit as being one of the very few stations to play them when no others would/did.
