Annette's Heart of the Country

Presented by Annette Mehrtens

Annette (seen here on the left with her sister Margaret) loves country music and has a real desire to help promote Kiwi artists who struggle to get commercial airplay. She features interviews and music from popular international artists as well as Kiwi musicians.

Annette has met Daniel O’Donnell, Mary Duff, Isla and Al Grant, The Irish Rovers and Charlie Landsborough plus many others through her radio career.  

The last half hour of this weekly show is the 'Irish Country Showcase'. There are so many great artists coming out of Ireland that they deserve their own special section!

Annette’s sister, Margaret Ruru, takes listener's phone calls and has been part of the show since it began in September 1997.
