WSM debuted on October 5, 1925, and less than two months later, the show would birth its most famous show (and the show that would make country music famous), the Grand Ole Opry. Based in Nashville, Tennessee, the 50,000-watt, low-frequency station can be heard in more than 38 states. The sounds of 650-AM WSM can also be heard around the world via wsmonline.com.
