On Air
Curtis Pope
Afternoons: Noon to 6pm
Curtis isn’t your typical country boy! Growing up on the sunny plains of Richmond, riding his BMX bike while wearing a ball cap backwards doesn’t exactly sound like a cowboy upbringing.
Curtis did grow up listening to country music, from Waylon and Willie, Cash and The Hag to Alabama and Randy Travis. Curtis spent his teen years as a long haired rocker before Travis Tritt and Garth brought him back to country music. Eventually Curtis ended up working with some guy named Steve Fanning at a country station in Prince George. After 6 1/2 years in PG it was time to pack up the family and move back to the Lower Mainland. When he’s not on the air you can usually find Curtis playing with his kids, spending time with his gorgeous wife or cheering on the Canucks or the St Louis Cardinals. By the way Curtis is the taller guy in the picture, he doesn't get to say that very often .
