Country Music is Coming to New York! Finally!!

Country music’s coming to the big city with the help of  John Rich.

Ocean County’s country station, Thunder 98.5 FM, recently announced the re-position of two of its radio formats beginning this Wednesday, September 15. In their new expansion, the station will begin broadcasting into central New Jersey expanding to New York City and kicking off their big switch with John Rich’s appropriately titled single, “Country Done Come to Town.”

“I’m so pumped to be part of history in the making,” says John of the station’s recent expansion. “Thunder has been incredibly supportive of my music and it is an honor for me to help kick off country music in NYC with ‘Country Done Come to Town.’”

On Wednesday, Ocean County’s Country Thunder 98.5FM will move up the dial to 106.5FM in Ocean County and also simulcast on 106.3FM in Monmouth County. HIT 106, which formerly broadcasted on 106.3FM/106.5FM will take its Top 40 format and re-position it on 98.5FM. Thunder 98.5FM will become Thunder 106 and expand its reach to bring country music to a new level in central New Jersey.

“Country Music is a format with an extremely loyal listener base”, says Rich Morena, General Manager and Partner of Press. “We saw the void in Monmouth County and the demand was overwhelming from our Monmouth County fan base and now we are expanding our reach to meet that demand.”
