SiriusXM Radio: Official! Shotgun Tom Kelly Starts Monday

Legendary SoCal radio personality ShotgunTom Kelly makes his long-awaited debut on SiriusXM’s 60s on 6 channel on Monday, Labor Day, Sept. 3.  His shift is 7-11pm ET on Mondays, Tuesdays, Thursdays and Fridays.

The move to satellite radio is a perfect fit for Shotgun Tom, who famously hit the post on those same timeless hits during his successful 22-year run at Classic Hits KRTH K-Earth 101 in Los Angeles, stepping into the massive shoes of The Real Don Steele after he passed away in 1997.

“We are thrilled to have Shotgun Tom join our family!” said Lou Simon, Sr. Director, Music Programming, SiriusXM.

“He is one of America’s premiere broadcasters. He knows how to let the music be the star… but let everyone know he is front and center and on the case! His energy and his passion for great music and great radio will make our already cool station… that much cooler!”

Kelly, who was awarded his own star on the iconic Hollywood Walk Of Fame in 2013 and recently named President of the Pacific Pioneer Broadcasters, will voice his new SiriusXM show from studios in San Diego, the city where he first cemented his superstar status back in the day at KCBQ, KGB and B100, according to the L-A Daily News.

Effective Monday, Sept. 3, the revised jock line-up on 60s on 6 looks like this

• 6-11am ET: Phlash Phelps
• 11am-3pm: Dave Hoeffel
• 3-7pm: Pat St. John (Wednesdays until 5pm)
• Shotgun Tom: 7-11pm (except Wednesdays, when Cousin Brucie‘s Cruisin’ airs)
