Just a few months ago, Sirius announced that they had reached an agreement to extend their exclusive deal with Bruce Morrow, otherwise known as ‘Cousin Brucie’ to fans. The deal is a multi-year agreement that will ensure Cousin Brucie remains on the air for many years to come. While Sirius is known for broadcasting programming in many instances that is somewhat edge, Cousin Brucie has proven to be quite popular, along with his Saturday Night Party; a program which originally aired in 1958.
Today he continues to play a variety of popular hits from the 1950s and 1960s. Like many other radio personalities who have found a home on Sirius, Morrow reported that he had chosen to stay with Sirius not only because of the large following he has been able to continue with Sirius but also because of the large degree of creative freedom which he is granted with the company. It is this creative freedom that is continuing to draw some of the biggest names in entertainment and radio away from traditional radio broadcasting and into the satellite radio industry.
Currently Sirius offers 130+ channels to subscribers. It continues to offer the only music channels that are 100% free of commercials while also offering a variety of sports, entertainment, news talk, weather and traffic channels and programming as well.
