About the show

Michelle Lee is a multi-award-winning broadcasting titan and one of the most prominent women in bluegrass and country radio. Starting from a modest home studio nearly 30 years ago, Michelle has built an international audio empire. Today, she operates her own 24/7 online streaming network, Michelle Lee On Air, available globally via Live365 and her own dedicated mobile app. Michelle's extraordinary talent behind the microphone has earned her the highest honors in the industry. In 2019, she took home the prestigious IBMA Broadcaster of the Year Award—a monumental feat, as she was only the fifth woman in history to win the honor. She followed that milestone by being named the SPBGMA Bluegrass DJ of the Year in 2022. Over the years, Michelle has expanded her reach through massive syndication partnerships, sharing her popular programming with networks like Southern Branch Bluegrass (SBB) Radio and Bluegrass Planet Radio. On-Air Style & Sound The Perfect Blend: Michelle expertly merges her two flagship programs, Smoked Country Jam and Bluegrass Borderline, to spin a seamless, high-energy mix of yesterday and today's Country, Bluegrass, Roots, Acoustic, and Americana music. The Weekly Top 10: A massive draw for her listeners is the highly anticipated Bluegrass Borderline Weekly Top 10 Countdown, showcasing the fastest-moving tracks in the genre. Real Talk & Song Stories: Deeply devoted to the artists, Michelle regularly features exclusive, long-form interviews and her signature "Stories Behind the Songs" segments, giving fans an inside look at how their favorite tracks were written and recorded. Faith, Hope & Love: To honor the spiritual roots of the genre, Michelle anchors her weekend programming with a beautifully curated Sunday morning Country and Bluegrass Gospel hour.
