The Rock Now Sporting Woods
• Durham Radio Active Rock CKGE (94.9 The Rock)/Toronto is pretty damn pleased and proud to announce that they have retained the unique skillset of Jeff Woods, the iconic voice of Classic Rock Radio in Canada for more than 35 years, to host a new show, Classic Rock Sundays with Jeff Woods, starting July 23.
Woods is a former PD of CILQ (Q107)/Toronto and CFOX/Vancouver and has been on the air at CFBR (100.3 The Bear)/Edmonton and CFRQ (Q104)/Halifax, Nova Scotia, and will now bring his extensive experience as a programmer, musicologist, interviewer, writer, researcher and voice as a storyteller to the forefront to host this weekly-must listen afternoon event Sundays from noon to 6pm.
Doug Elliott, Program Director of 94.9 The Rock, remarked, “We’re fortunate to share the same vision with a communicator like Jeff, who brings his ‘A game’ every time he cracks the mic. His passion, knowledge and ability to tell a great story is second to none. Not to mention Jeff’s contacts in his iPhone are a virtual who’s-who of rock & roll royalty.”
Steve Macaulay, VP of Sales for Durham Radio Inc., noted, “We’re super pleased to have hometown rocker Jeff Woods added to our roster! Sponsors are already signing up for the show and it hasn’t even started!”
Woods commented, “Doing radio in Toronto, where I did all of my pre-teen and teen radio listening, has long been a passion. The city and its suburbs are filled with people who are incredibly passionate about music and the artists that make it. Just. Like. Me. And so, thrilled am I to host Classic Rock Sundays on 94.9 The Rock, complementing my Records & Rockstars series.”
Classic Rock Sundays with Jeff Woods can be heard in Toronto and the GTA on 94.9 The Rock and everywhere else on earth right here.
