American Beauty is presented by John Cotter (Facebook) on Dundalk FM 97.7. From the roots of country and bluegrass to the golden age of rock and roll, from Motown soul to the singer-songwriters of the 1970s, the show covers the vast and varied landscape of American popular music.
John brings genuine knowledge and affection to every episode, drawing on a deep familiarity with the history and culture that produced this music. American Beauty is not just a playlist, it is a journey through the stories, places, and people that gave the world some of its most enduring songs.
Each episode has a theme or thread running through it, whether that is a particular era, a region, a genre, or an artist’s influence. John weaves these connections together in a way that makes the music feel alive and relevant, not just nostalgic.
American Beauty airs on the 2nd and 4th Saturday of the month at 6.00 pm on
Dundalk FM 97.7. You can also follow the show on the
American Beauty Radio Show (Facebook).
