SoCal Sound Shakes Up its Programming
“Jet Into Work is going to be a high-energy, up-tempo hour to get us started with our day,” said SoCal Sound PD Mookie Kaczor. “Jet has proven to be a beloved broadcaster and is very well liked by SoCal Sound listeners and members. We’re excited to give Jet her own show. We thought it’d be interesting to bookend the primetime, starting with Jet Into Work early in the day and finishing with our star, Nic Harcourt.” He added, “I think these changes are going to make The SoCal Sound even more appealing and exciting for our listeners.”
In other station news, afternoon host Matt Pinfield is on the mend after suffering a stroke in January. “I am so grateful to be alive. The general consensus was that I wasn’t going to make it and here I am,” said Pinfield in a statement released by his agent. “I am overwhelmed and humbled by your love. I am beyond grateful for those that have stuck by me. My radio family includes my listeners, my dear friends and the wonderful radio companies that continue to support me. I cannot wait to get back to hosting Flashback, KLOS and SoCal Sound. We were told I might not speak or walk again, and my voice is back, and I am doing five hours of physical therapy a day, and my walking continues to improve. There is nothing like my radio community. I love you all.”

Young died at his home in Aiken, SC on Sunday, March 16. "As the frontman of The Youngbloods, he immortalized the ideals of the Woodstock generation with 'Get Together,' an international hit that called for peace and brotherhood during the turbulent 1960s," said his representative in a statement. "An acclaimed songwriter, singer, instrumentalist, producer, label owner, podcast host, and longtime social/environmental activist, he has established a permanent place in America's musical landscape, while continuing to make modern music that's every bit as vital as his work during the counterculture era."
The SoCal Sound has adjusted the weekday lineup and added three new shows. It begins with Jet Into Work at 6 a.m. This hour will set the tone for the rest of the day, before More Music In The Mornings with Nic Harcourt and Jet goes on the air from 7-10 a.m. The station is also adding Nic At Six with Harcourt. After hosting the flagship morning show, Nic will return to the airwaves from 6-7 p.m. to present an hour of new music, forgotten classics and more. Finally, Rob Romero takes over weeknights from 7-9 p.m.
