Host: Pacifico Rik Ferrell
Pacifico Rik Ferrell originally hails from the historic port of Annapolis, MD. Rik’s Cuban-born father gave him his love of Caribbean groove & Latin Jazz early on, which he combines with a passion for Outlaw Country, Southern Soul, and Indie Alternative to create a unique sound that’s been dubbed ‘the intersection where Austin meets Key West'. "My songs tell stories about friends & foes, turmoil & tiki bars, rich girls and road trips…it's not always up to me what comes out."
Rik’s music receives steady airplay in the Coastal Country & Tropical Rock radio formats, and he performs up and down the east coast and in the Caribbean, with a main focus in the Chesapeake region and South Florida.
