KDRK is a Contemporary Country station known as "93.7 The Mountain" and plays today's hit country songs and mixes in familiar country music from the past.
KDRK-FM was formerly known as "Cat Country 94" and "93.7 The Cat". It initially was started in December 1965 as KDNC-FM, the sister station to KDNC 1440 AM.
It is one of seven local Spokane FM radio stations heard across Canada to subscribers of the Shaw Direct satellite TV service.[1]
On October 11, 2011 at 6 AM, after playing "Go Rest High on That Mountain" by Vince Gill, the station dropped "The Cat" and began stunting with the bell from "Hell's Bells" by AC/DC, a ticking clock, an announcer saying "KDRK Spokane, Mission Control T-minus _ minutes", and clips of songs from Schoolhouse Rock and Animaniacs. At 11 AM, the station relaunched their country format as "93.7 The Mountain".[2][3] The first song as The Mountain was "How Do You Like Me Now?!" by Toby Keith.
On October 9, 2019, Stephens Media Group completed its acquisition of the Mapleton Communications properties.
