Cincinnati radio station playing non-stop Christmas music

CINCINNATI (WXIX) - It’s that time of year again!

A Cincinnati radio station has flipped over to non-stop holiday music.

STAR 93.3, Cincinnati’s Christian music station, started spreading the holiday cheer Monday morning.

“We believe Christmas is the most joyful time of the year,” station officials wrote on their website. “Christmas music is one of the few types of music that is almost universal. Not everyone listens to Christian music. Nor does everyone listen to country, rock, or pop music. However, Christmas music is different in the fact that almost everyone grew up at one time or another listening to Christmas music. It’s familiar to almost everyone. Because of that fact, when we play Christmas music on STAR 93.3, we have many new people tuning in.”

Louisville radio station flips over to nonstop Christmas music

LOUISVILLE, Ky. —
Right on cue. ♫

A Louisville radio station has once again flipped over to non-stop Christmas music.

If you turn on 106.9 Play (WVEZ), you'll hear nothing but holiday music up until Dec. 25, 2021. It started early Monday morning at 9 a.m.

They usually make the switch from modern hits to Christmas tunes the day after Halloween. You'll hear all kinds of classics like "Rudolph" and "Let It Snow."

"We are the perfect mix, Christmas music during the holiday season and the best variety of 2K and today the rest of the year. We always have been, and always will be, Louisville’s original Christmas Music Station," SummitMedia Louisville Operations Manager, Cagle, said in a news release.

Cagle said the station plans will also have contests like the "Jingle Bell Rock Double Play" and plans to parade Santa through Louisville.
