Phil Atteberry

Host of Saturday Swing Session

Phill Atteberry is a child of radio, though he was born in the wrong decade for it. Phill’s dad quit barbering in his 40's and went to work at a small town, commercial radio station. He sold ads, read the news and weather, and had a jazz program on Sunday afternoons. He maintained that program for over forty years, well into his 80's. Seeing his dad work in radio heightened Phill’s interest in the medium. Phill took over as host of Saturday Swing Session after the death of Bill Garts in 2013.
