Garner Pulls Another All-Nighter
The Blair Garner Show debuted last night across a network of 150 radio stations across this great land The move marks a return to overnight radio for Garner, whose show airs Monday through Sunday from midnight-5am from Cumulus Media’s NASH Campus in Nashville and is syndicated nationally by Westwood One. Garner said, “Fifteen million Americans work the late and overnight shifts…15 million! These folks are the backbone of our country — the ones who dig a little deeper to get ahead, and get the job done. We owe them a lot, and this show is our attempt to thank them for all that they do. They are a special bunch that deserve more than jukebox radio.”
Last night’s debut show boasted a huge inaugural guest — Country legend George Strait! Garner said, “It also means a lot that someone like George Strait would agree to be our first guest. The man couldn’t have been more gracious. And from the leading edge of Country, Sam Hunt gave us a live version of his No. 1 hit, ‘Take Your Time.’ It is really an electric show.”
Mike McVay, SVP of Content & Programming for Cumulus Media and Westwood One remarked, “Blair originated the concept of overnight entertainment for Country listeners. His homecoming enables stations around the world the opportunity to build an even larger audience for their morning shows. His talent and total dedication to the third shift worker makes this show unique.” To get The Blair Garner Show in your market, contact Donny Walker at 615-727-6987 or DWalker@westwoodone.com.
