The WDEV Radio Rangers show ran for 26 years on the station. No longer associated with WDEV radio and now known simply as the “The Radio Rangers”. The band’s “country style” is as diverse as the people playing it: Danny Coane with his famous rhythm guitar and stylish vocals; Dave Rowell’s spot-on bass playing and wonderful lead and harmony vocals; Jim Pitman’s endless supply of tasteful leads and licks on his pedal steel and dobro “hound dog” guitar; and the super-talented Don Schabner, whose electric guitar leads impress everyone.

Freeman Corey played an occasional music gig with Gopher Broke and later had an 8 year run with Steve and Chris in Catamount Crossing. A call from a local farm for music at their Peach Festival was a great excuse for these close friends to play some music once again. The Sap Tappers became a thing, taking on a few music opportunities around Vermont. There’s something for everyone who enjoys Folk, Americana, Bluegrass, Country, as well as many fine originals by your friend and ours, Steve Wright. Hailing from the southern reaches of the Northeast Kingdom, Steve has spent decades performing throughout the region both as a solo artist and as part of such notable groups as “Pickin’ Up Steam”, “Gopher Broke”, “Catamount Crossing”, “The Bayley Hazen Boys” and many more. Freeman Corey grew up on a small dairy farm in Benson, VT. The son of a fine old time fiddler, he started playing at age 9, learning hundreds of Irish, Scottish, and French-Canadian fiddle tunes from his father. He has become one of Vermont’s most sought-after traditional fiddlers, gracing the stage with Bear Tracks, Bloodroot Gap, Catamount Crossing, Big Spike Bluegrass, The Haymakers, and Spare Parts. Chris Cruger’s musical adventures have taken him around New England, the Northeast and beyond.
