SIRIUS Satellite Radio

DJ schedules are subject to change. Times are in Eastern Standard Time (ET) except where noted.

Mike Marrone
Weekdays 6 am - Noon ET
Saturday Noon to 6 pm ET
Sunday 6 am - 10 am ET
The original architect of The Loft, Mike has a long and storied history of being at the forefront of new ways to present music on the radio. In the early ‘80s he was one of the pioneers of Alternative Radio and has been involved in the early development of AAA and even web radio from the very beginning. His extensive background encompasses virtually every area of the music industry and he is an acknowledged fountain of musical knowledge. His passion for music is only superseded by his love for his family, with baseball (particularly The New York Yankees) a close third.

Meg Griffin | email
Weekdays Noon – 6 pm ET
Saturdays 6 pm - Midnight ET
Sundays 3 pm - 6 pm ET
A bona-fide radio legend who is one of a handful of DJs celebrated in a Rock and Roll Hall Of Fame and Museum exhibit honoring the greatest personalities to grace the airwaves, Megless actually went to school to be a veterinarian. But after getting a gig at a college radio station, she was hooked. "At first I just thought it would be funny to write home to my folks: 'Hey, guess what? I'm a DJ!' But from the moment I got on the microphone and did my first segue, it was like 'oh man, I have to do this.'" 30 years in radio later, it turns out that Meg's instincts were spot on.

Franny Thomas
Weekdays 6 pm - Midnight ET
Saturdays 6 am - Noon ET
First of all, Franny Thomas would like to set the record straight, as you can see her first name is spelled with a Y. After a brief fling in the Midwest, Franny has returned to her hometown of Washington, DC specifically to work for SIRIUS XM. When not hanging out at The Loft (usually alphabetizing stacks of CDs), Ms. Thomas can be found trolling the greater D.C. area for live music, hiking to the top of mountains and searching the world for the perfect chocolate chip cookie.

Vin Scelsa | email
Wed and Thur Noon to 2 pm ET
Replay Sat 12 am ET and Sun 8 pm ET
One of the most respected figures in NYC radio, Vin Scelsa can now be heard live on The Loft, bringing us his free-flowing mix of music, monologues, live performances and interviews with a wide range of guests. Whether he spends the program time with guests – encouraging them to speak on a range of subjects beyond their own projects – or alone in his home studio, going one-on-one with listeners and tapping into his vast personal music library – it is Scelsa's sensibility and eclectic tastes that make his Idiot's Delight a unique radio journey.

Dave Marsh
Sunday 10 am - Noon ET
At the intersection of music and politics, legendary Rock critic Dave Marsh hosts Kick Out The Jams on SIRIUS XM. Dave began writing professionally for Creem in the late sixties, was the record editor at Rolling Stone in the seventies, and in 1983 founded Rock & Roll Confidential.

David Johansen
David Johansen, the founder of The New York Dolls, inhabitor of the body of Buster Poindexter, and leader of David Johansen and The Harry Smiths, is also a musicologist. From the jungles of Africa to the Bayou of Louisiana, from Duke Ellington to Phil Spector to Billy Joe Shaver, David's show is all over the musical map. The soul of free form philosophy lives at The Mansion of Fun.

Lou Reed
Lou Reed’s ongoing program on The Loft features music that runs the gamut from jazz to vintage rock, and everything in between. As Lou says, "For years, I've always been a fan of eclectic radio, such as FM radio in the past when you could hear stations play widely divergent music, ranging from Rock to Country to Jazz to Opera. I loved the days when DJs who did their own programming set the bar high." Lou co-hosts the show with record producer Hal Willner, who Lou recently collaborated with on the concert film Berlin.
