Lonesome Willcox

Captions provided by CCTubes – Captioning the Internet! Willcox, Arizona is a country music town that isn’t what it used to be. The town has a single radio station, run by one employee who lives at the studio, and is seen as an outcast by many of the townspeople.

This unlikely champion of country music has a troubled history with the music that he plays every day. But he’s keeping it alive for the old folks, and looking for redemption over the airwaves.

[UPDATE] Sadly, as of October 2018, KHIL has been taken off the air. It is unclear what the new owners intend to do with the station.
