Westwood One, the official radio broadcast partner of the Recording Academy and GRAMMYs, will return to New York for the 60th Annual GRAMMY Awards taking place at Madison Square Garden on January 28. Westwood One will produce a menu of multi-format programming and a live musical performance series, including a two-hour GRAMMYs 60th Anniversary Nomination Special distributed across three music formats airing January 20-21, each hosted by New York air talent. The Rhythmic CHR, Hot AC and AC versions will be hosted by Jayde Donovan from Todd & Jayde on WPLJ-FM/New York and the Urban/Urban AC version will be hosted by La Loca from WNBM-FM/New York.

"Our #1 goal is to engage and entertain our listeners across the country, so this year we created a month-long programming line-up that brings the GRAMMYs to life."
