Our Music

MAGIC FM'S Simply Deluxe Format - "The Superstars of Music"!

Magic FM plays the songs you know from the stars who made them famous...Frank Sinatra, Tony Bennett, Nat King Cole, Ella Fitzgerald, Sammy Davis, Jr., Dean Martin, Perry Como, Peggy Lee, Andy Williams, Glenn Miller, Bobby Darin, Rosemary Clooney, Benny Goodman, Barbra Streisand...

Also, as the baby boomers grow up, they relate to those songs created by adults for adults.

Today's best artists have discovered "the standards", those songs that have achieved a level of familiarity and acceptance above all others. This revived popularity of songs for grownups is reflected by artists such as Linda Ronstadt, Harry Connick, Jr., Natalie Cole, The Manhattan Transfer, Billy Joel, and Diana Ross.
