(ITHACA/CORTLAND NY) As anticipation builds for the upcoming solar eclipse, Cayuga Radio Group is announced an audio experience to compliment the solar spectacle with the launch of custom music playlists curated specifically for this historic celestial event. Four stations, four formats, and listeners can pick their listening choice as they watch the eclipse on Monday April 8th.
“We created four distinct 20-minute music playlists in the rock, country, Top 40, and adult contemporary formats,” said Chris Allinger, Operation Manager and Q Country morning host. “Kat on I 100, Dave on Lite Rock, and Justin on Z95.5 each have 20-minute sweeps that people can add an audio experience to this historic visual occasion.”
Listeners can expect an immersive audio journey tailored to their musical tastes, thanks to the expertise of Cayuga Radio Group’s talented team. “I love letting our listeners share input,” said Kat Walters, Brand Manager of I 100. “They came up with some amazing rock songs, and I think people will love it.”
“I’m excited! I hope people turn up the volume and really enjoy the mutli media show. I want people to remember Z95.5 as the radio station they were playing when they saw the eclipse” Said Z95.5 Brand Manager Justin Bertolero.
Dave Ashton of Lite Rock echoed this sentiment, expressing excitement about the unique playlists while teasing surprises in store. “We are also excited. I can’t say what people will hear in advance,” said Dave. “But I can say you WON’T HEAR U2’s ‘Staring at the Sun’… that just seems like a recipe for disaster.”
Playlists will start at 3pm EST.
