Welcome to BAT FM 🎙️ 🦇—your home for the finest Country, Rock, Funk, and 70s, 80s, & 90s Throwbacks.
I'm Ian, an expat Host broadcasting LIVE 5 days a week at 1:00 p.m. Eastern Standard Time (EST) from the beautiful island of Madeira, Portugal. I am 95% blind due to Stargardt's disease, but hosting authentic, radio-style shows is my absolute passion. I might not be able to see the screen perfectly, but my ear for a great track has never been sharper.
When you tune into my live streams, we're spinning the real deal: country legends like Johnny Cash and Hank Williams, alongside killer rock anthems, deep funk grooves, and the absolute best retro throwbacks. This is a place to kick back, talk, and enjoy a couple of hours of peace together with great tunes.
BAT FM 🎙️ 🦇 is all about community, good vibes, and sharing the music we love. Grab a drink, settle in, and let the music do the talking.
