ABC Audio has announced it will provide affiliates with three different three-hour specials for use over Memorial Day weekend.

Country superstar Jason Aldean hosts "Front & Center's Memorial Day Weekend Special." The program features music from Aldean's latest album "Georgia," details about his upcoming tour and a look back at his time on the road.

"Memorial Day 40," presented by Speakeasy and hosted by ABC Audio's Matt Wolfe, highlights top albums and songs that debuted 40 years ago -- in 1982. Artists featured include The Clash, Phil Collins, The Go-Go's, Pat Benatar and more.

ABC News Radio presents "Honor, Hope and Healing," hosted by correspondents Aaron Katersky and Alex Stone.
