Singers and Musicians With October Birthdays!
IF YOU WERE BORN IN OCTOBER you’re sharing Your Birthday Month with many of the music stars we play year around. However, during October, songs by October born singers and bands with members born in October are being played more often in our mix of hits from the 1950s through the 2010s, and beyond. PLUS, since October is the month of Halloween, we’re also throwing in Halloween oriented songs throughout each day. AND, our mix includes Classic Hit Wannabees as extra added spice. AND, we’re also playing Hispanic artists to celebrate National Hispanic Heritage Month and tunes with “rock” in their titles to honor ROCKTOBER!
