Townsquare Names James Rabe to Host ''The Night Shift''

The Night Shift

Townsquare Media names James Rabe as the new host for its Classic Hits program "The Night Shift." The show was originally hosted by Craig Allen since its inception. Rabe is a longtime radio personality and music fan who first hit the airwaves when he was just 16, and went on to become a nationally recognized air talent heard on stations from Maine to Washington.

Rabe commented, "Craig is a giant in our industry. It is an enormous honor to be asked to host 'The Night Shift.' There are some pretty big shoes to fill here in the studio. For now, I'll stuff the toes with extra socks. The '70s, '80s and '90s are my jam. A big thank you to Townsquare Media for giving me the chance to fulfill a longtime dream."
