Rebecca Hylton - Monday Flashbacks and Freshtrack 3-5 and BackCountry, Tuesday 1-3pm

I started hosting shows in 1999, living in Haines for ten years and now a full-time resident of Skagway.I love music and giving back to my community which, to me, is all of the Upper Lynn Canal. I believe that to make this world a better place, we should touch those around us in a positive way...what better way than music! 

Jeff Bochart - Flashbacks and Fresh Tracks, Wednesday, 3-5pm.

since moving to the upper valler 30 years back, KHNS has been a major source of info. Back in those days of packing water and running a generator for power out at 39 mile, the times when we received a signal from KHNS was like having an "ear to the world"...it seemed like magic really.

So, at long last, it is high time to be  a part of this sweet little radio station which truly has a life all of its own.

Eli White - Basketball and Tech help

When he’s not helping us out during basketball season with recording and editing, Eli is a sophomore at Haines High School where he lets the other side of his brain loose on the DDF Team. He’s a part-time homeschooler and also volunteers for the Haines Library and the Takshanuk Watershed Council.

Deb Potter Backcountry 1-3pm and Flashback and Fresh Tracks 3-5pm when she can...

I've always loved music and pushing buttons..plus, my parents always told me I had a face for radio. I moved to Skagway in 2001 and got involved with KHNS in 2006. I truly am living the dream. 

Cherri Price - Soundwaves, Monday 8-10am       

Music is alive and continues to fascinate me with its power to create deeply felt moods and attitude. I usher in Mondays with a flirty mix of softish rock and soulful blues with hopscotch genre suprises here and  there. Oftentimes I dissolve into the experience. Chatting on air with interesting people as they share wellness information is an honor. Haines has been my year round home since 1994, keeping me on a short leash with its mountain spring drinking water, local radio station, library, art scene,picnic spots, fishing holes and secret gardens.

I came to Haines and KHNS in the summer of 1989, having DJ’ed since ’86 at a couple other stations down south.  Addicted to mixing a smooth flow drawn from the vast cosmos of music, I’ve enjoyed spinning a variety of genres over the years, with a special fondness for world music, which I slip into shows wherever possible.  Currently rocking out on Flashbacks
and Freshtracks in the afternoon, I also like to fill-in on Soundwaves in
the morning or other random shows.
 

 Amelia Nash Melodies and Memories - Sundays noon to 1pm

Mark Larsen - Flashbacks and Fresh Tracks Friday, 3-5pm
Since arriving in Haines in '91 and Skagway in '96, the land and the communities of the Upper Lynn Canal has been his home and passion. Ever a fan of music of all flavors, Mark has hosted the Flashbacks and Freshtracks show on Fridays for four years, playing everything from funk to punk.

I work at 33 Mile during most of the year and live at 18 mile all of the year. when I first agreed to a country show a few years back, I had to ask my friends for names of some country artists, that's how green I was.

Amy Swanstrom - Soundwaves, Thursday 8-10am

An excellent way to join the day with Amy on soundwaves. When not waking us up on Thursday mornings, Amy also serves (and serves well) on the KHNS Board of Directors.

A regular visitor to Haines since '92, and a full time resident since '07, I'm a longtime fan of KHNS, and any good music which is a little quirky, from rock to folk, international to jazz, it can all be heard here!

Michelle Stigen - BackCountry   - Thursday, 1-3pm

I moved to Haines in 1990. I grew up in Arizona, with the cactus, desert heat, and "Western Music" as my parents referred to it.I was forced to watch "Hee Haw" with the folks, so I'm partial to the classics.I was a Classic Rock addict as a teen but now that I've semi grown up, I really like country music. I've been to Nashville and heard some of the best country western bands you could imagine. 

You'll find I bounce back and forth between the classics and the new country, I like it all! I'm married with children, two singles & two doubles (twins). I love Alaska, and wouldn't think of raising my family anywhere else!

Self declared segue junkie. He can't listen to a song without searching for the perfect tune to follow it. His weekly  morning show is rambling, eclectic assemblage of sound which, on a good day, fits together seamlessly. He also gets to MC  History Talk, which puts him under pressure to remember all those dates he forgot in high school.

Having spent the better part of her life making a living as an artist while listening to music (and rarely doing one without the other), she came to Haines several years ago and almost immediately began producing and hosting Sunday afternoon's World Music show, Terra Incognita. She now regularly enjoys astral traveling to various countries around the globe, and has occasionally been seen flying in between the mountain tops that surround this rare, remote haven of wild, incomparable beauty.

He arrived in Haines via a VW bus, via a Ferry, via a tow truck over a dozen years ago. He vowed to find a way to live here after attending the Haines Beer Festival where the skies were blue, the beers dark, the dogs abounded and the grateful dead filled the air. He and his lovely wife Mandy and new baby, Lily Jo are living the dream. Don't wake him, but tune in to his Sunday night Salmon Berry Jam show.

Dan Henry, Soundwaves    (on hiatus)

"Good Vibrations" was my first volunteer show at KHNS in 1983, and in the ensuing years I've happily hosted every live show on the schedule, including programs near-forgotten like Soulful Shack, Matinee, Tsunami Warning, and Songs of Praise. It's been my honor to bring a fraction of our incredible collection to the airwaves.

I've met some very fine folks through our mighty little radio station, and owe a creative moment or ten to each.
    

 Thom Ely (on hiatus)

I first came into contact with KHNS in 1982 as a visitor to town.  A friend of mine who had recently moved to Haines was on the air and asked me if I wanted to sit in on his show.  I’ve always enjoyed radio and was excited to have the opportunity to check it out. 

When I moved to Haines in 1987 I started hosting Swing Shift on Monday nights, which is now All That’s Jazz and stepped in as a DJ for any show whenever the opportunity arose.  I love all kinds of music and KHNS in particular, the best radio station in the Universe!

Nicole Studley BackCountry Tuesday 1-3pm

Blind from birth, Nicole was born in Anchorage October 1992 and adopted by James and Janice Studley  when Nicole was 10 days old. Nicole began her radio time in 2002 with her friend and former KHNS DJ, Merrick Bochart.  As co-host of the "Back Country " show with her dad Jim Studley, Nicole earns high school credit toward work experience.  A line from the song "I Am Blind" that Nicole wrote with singer, songwriter Brad  Barnett in 2000, sums her up:  "I got a lot of friends that care about me, and I'm blind, but I like life and it likes me." Nicole loves most music but prefers songs with words she can hear and understand.
