SiriusXM taps American musician and vocalist Kelly Ogden, best known for her work in the band The Dollyrots, to host a daily show beginning October 14 on the satcaster's "Underground Garage" (channel 21). Ogden will offer listeners music from some of her favorite rock 'n roll girl groups to punk rock, while also sharing her own tour stories and thoughts during the four-hour show.

"As the amount of users of the SiriusXM App increases, which allows our station to be heard by American travelers worldwide, we have decided that there are no longer any 'off hours,' and are going full 24/7 with DJs," said Rock and Roll Hall of Famer, artist, producer, performer and founder of SiriusXM's Underground Garage, Little Steven Van Zandt. "To serve our final DJ slot we have chosen Kelly Ogden, who fits perfectly on our DJ team. She has a positive vibe, is a great conversationalist, comes with first hand stories of being on the road in a rock band, and a vast knowledge of garage-rock history."

In addition to fronting The Dollyrots, Ogden has also appeared in or shared her voice in TV and film, including ABC's "Schooled," "CSI: NY," "Greek," Disney's "Brave," "Easy A," "The Price Is Right" and "Girl Trash: All Night Long." She also shares a side-project with Bowling For Soup frontman Jaret Reddick called "Jaret and Kelly." The Dollyrots, an outfit that was formed with her now husband Luis Cabezas, when they were in college, have had success with their last four releases hitting the Billboard charts.

"After rocking out and telling stories on stage with my band, The Dollyrots, for nearly 20 years, I'm so excited to be on the radio doing my favorite thing-hanging out with music fans and playing rock ‘n' roll!" added Ogden. "I cannot wait to share my mornings with listeners of Underground Garage, it's going to be a blast whether you're an early bird or just getting home from that all-night party."
