Cumulus Set to Debut ''The Blair Garner Show''


Cumulus Media announces that The Blair Garner Show will debut today across over 150 radio stations nationwide. The all-new overnight radio program, hosted by National and Country Radio Hall of Fame On-Air Personality, Blair Garner, will air Monday through Sunday from Midnight-5AM. The Blair Garner Show broadcasts from Cumulus Media's NASH Campus in Nashville and is syndicated nationally by Westwood One. Garner has dedicated the new show to those special Americans hard at work while the rest of the world sleeps. Garner's first guest will be country legend, George Strait.

Garner said, "15 million Americans work the late and overnight shifts... 15 million! These folks are the backbone of our country -- the ones who dig a little deeper to get ahead, and get the job done. We owe them a lot, and this show is our attempt to thank them for all that they do. They are a special bunch that deserve more than jukebox radio." "It also means a lot that someone like George Strait would agree to be our first guest," added Garner. "The man couldn't have been more gracious. And from the leading edge of Country, Sam Hunt gave us a live version of his number-one hit, "Take Your Time." It is really an electric show."

Mike McVay, Senior Vice President, Content & Programming, Cumulus Media and Westwood One said, "Blair originated the concept of overnight entertainment for country listeners. His homecoming enables stations around the world the opportunity to build an even larger audience for their morning shows. His talent and total dedication to the third shift worker makes this show unique."
