iHeartMedia Announces 3rd Annual ALTer EGO Lineup


iHeartMedia has revealed the lineup for the third annual iHeartRadio ALTer EGO Presented by Capital One. The event, hosted by Woody of iHeartRadio ALT 98.7's nationally-syndicated The Woody Show, will feature the biggest names in Alternative Rock including Billie Eilish, The Black Keys, blink-182, The Lumineers, Rex Orange County, SHAED will perform live at the historic, "Fabulous" Forum in Los Angeles on January 18, 2020 to celebrate everything Alternative Rock.

The star-studded event will livestream exclusively on LiveXLive.com and broadcast live across over 70 Alternative and Rock iHeartRadio stations.

"I'm pretty sure they meant to call another show to host instead of The Woody Show," said Woody. "This event, this lineup, is WAY out of our league. That said, it's going to be incredible. I can't see how this night could end up any other way!"

Beginning October 28, iHeartRadio will launch a nationwide promotion to give Alt-Rock fans across the country the opportunity to win a trip to Los Angeles to attend iHeartRadio ALTer EGO. The promotion will run across more than 85 Alternative, Rock and Classic Rock 90s iHeartRadio stations.

"For the third year in a row, iHeartRadio is bringing the biggest names in Alternative and Rock music together for one huge night," said Lisa Worden, Program Director for ALT 98.7 and Alternative Rock Brand Manager for iHeartMedia. "This is a show everyone will love."

"We are excited to expand our partnership with iHeartRadio and bring cardholders exclusive access to iHeartRadio ALTer EGO for the first time," said Byron Daub, Vice President of Sponsorships and Experiential Marketing at Capital One. "We're always looking for unique ways to provide our customers access to things they're passionate about, like music and entertainment."

Listeners will also have access to a limited number of tickets to iHeartRadio ALTer EGO through Alt 98.7's The LIST On-Sale beginning Thursday, October 17 at 10:00 am PT through Friday, October 18 at 10:00 am PT, or while supplies last.
