CKGY-FM (95.5 MHz) is a radio station located in Red Deer, Alberta. Owned by Stingray Group, it broadcasts a country format branded as New Country 95.5.
CKGY switched to FM in 2001, after broadcasting on the AM frequency 1170 kHz where it had been heard since the early 1970s.[1]
In November 2016, CKGY rebranded from KG Country to the Real Country brand, as with other Newcap-owned country stations in Alberta.[2] In 2019, the station began to syndicate its morning show Vinnie & Randi across 15 other Stingray stations in rural Alberta as part of a regional syndication strategy. The program contains local inserts for each market.[3]
On March 4, 2024, CKGY rebranded as New Country 95.5, as part of another national rebrand of Stingray's country stations.[4]
