“Daybreak” was a morning entertainment program that aired on WRAL-TV in the late 50s and early 60s.

The show featured local and regional musicians taking part in what WRAL promotional literature described as “an informal hour of country music at its best.”

Popular radio and recording personality Mike Hight was one of the band leaders on the show, but the best-known performer was Homer Briarhopper, who appeared on the show with his “Daybreak Gang” for many years.

Daybreak was a live studio program that aired each weekday at 6 a.m.
