United Stations Syndicates ‘Bootleg Kev’
• United Stations announced that Bootleg Kev will officially launch his content into network syndication as part of the company’s “Dayparts On Demand” service, beginning Monday, March 9. The Bootleg Kev line-up will include a daily 4-5 hour show for afternoons and nights along with a companion two-hour weekend mix show. As part of this announcement, United Stations welcome the first Bootleg Kev affiliates: Riviera Rhythmic KKFR (Power 98.3/96.1)/Phoenix, Beasley Rhythmic WLLD (WiLD 94.9)/Tampa and Gold Coast Broadcasting Rhythmic KCAQ (Q95.9)/Oxnard, CA.
Bootleg Kev, originally from Phoenix, has been doing radio for over 15 years, with stops in Las Vegas, Tampa, Phoenix, and for the last four years, at iHeartMedia’s KRRL (Real 92.3)/Los Angeles. The show also features the ‘No Cap News’ with James Andre Jefferson Jr. and show producer Nico Blitz.
This announcement comes from Stefan Jones, SVP/Content and Affiliation at United Stations, and USRN’s newly appointed content specialist/consultant Tim Richards of TR Media; jointly with the Bootleg Kev team, which includes network operations consultant Brian Samson. Jones commented, “This format requires complete authenticity, and Bootleg Kev delivers that. His connection to the music, the artists and his listeners is unmatched.” Kev added, “This show is something that is currently missing from the syndication world, and one that I’m very excited about bringing to airwaves across the country. I’m so excited about our partnership with United Stations. Stefan Jones, Andy Denemark, Tim Richards and the whole team see the vision, and I look forward to shaking up radio with them in my corner.”
