Rocker heads to the Twin Cities for KQRS-FM
Former Black Crowes drummer and co-founder Steve Gorman is expanding his radio resume by heading to Minneapolis to co-host the morning radio show on the Cumulus Media classic rock station, KQRS-FM. Gorman will join the established KQ Morning Show with co-hosts Brian Zepp, Tony Lee, and Candice Wheeler from 6-10 am CT beginning Monday, January 9th. Gorman, the current host of live nighttime radio show Steve Gorman Rocks!, syndicated by Cumulus Media’s Westwood One, will relocate to the Twin Cities. He will continue to host his nationally syndicated five-hour rock radio program, which airs weeknights from 7 pm-midnight on stations across the US.
“When I got the call gauging my interest in the KQ Morning Show, I thought at first it must be a prank,” Gorman shares. “A unique and truly iconic rock station in one of my favorite cities on Earth? Incredible. Easiest decision I’ve ever made. I can’t wait to get started.”
Steve Gorman began his radio career in 2011 with Steve Gorman Sports!, which aired in Nashville. The show was later syndicated nationally on Fox Sports Radio. After leaving the Black Crowes in 2014, Gorman penned his memoir, Hard to Handle: The Life and Death of The Black Crowes. Gorman launched Steve Gorman Rocks! with Westwood One, America’s largest audio network, in August 2019. As a musician, Gorman toured the world relentlessly for three decades, performing as a drummer with artists who are mainstays of classic rock playlists today, from AC/DC to ZZ Top, including the Rolling Stones, Aerosmith, Heart, Metallica, and Jimmy Page.
