The station is anchored by Radio Jersey, a show run by Lee Mrowicki every day Monday through Friday that takes over the station from 6:00pm to 8:00pm. Mrowicki was nicknamed “The Voice of The Stone Pony” by Rolling Stone magazine and has been associated with the legendary Asbury Park club for decades. This is the only daily radio program that plays just music by artists from New Jersey. It covers everything from Frank Sinatra to Bruce Springsteen and everything in between, showcasing the Garden State like never before. Mrowicki is also the host of Beyond the Palace, a weekly show that plays music by all of your favorite Jersey Shore artists. For even more Jersey sounds check out Classic Jersey, one of three weekly shows hosted by New Jersey Stage publisher Gary Wien. This show includes tracks by the biggest names from Jersey rock (Springsteen, Southside Johnny and the Asbury Jukes, Glen Burtnik, John Eddie, Bon Jovi, etc.) as well as hundreds of bands and singer-songwriters from the station’s 15 year history. Over a thousand artists have tracks in the show’s mix. Mike Marrone, the veteran disc jockey known locally from the old FM106.3 (Eatontown) and nationally as the host of “The Loft” on Sirius/XM presents From The Basement - an eclectic 3-hour show that features brand new tracks amidst favorites of Mike’s from over the years along with plenty of music news. Sean Carolan, a fellow DJ at the old 106.3, presents Altrok’s Radio Showcase. The weekly show brings you the best selection of new and classic modern rock seen on the Jersey Shore since the demise of the legendary FM106.3.
