after two years at Spotify, it signaled another return: to the programming that defined the alternative sound of Southern California for much of the 1990s and 2000s.
By others, Kaplan was referring to Alt 98.7, iHeartRadio’s rock alternative frequency in L.A. That station is headed by program director Lisa Worden, VP of Rock and Alternative for iHeartMedia, who worked under Weatherly for some 20 years.— L.A. is the No. 2 radio market in the U.S. — but the gap has narrowed slightly.
The Acoustic Christmas show marks its 30th edition in 2022, minus two years for the pandemic. In the ’90s, bills included the likes of Rage Against the Machine, the Cranberries, Blind Melon and Fiona Apple; even Radiohead played, in 1995. As rock got harder towards the end of the decade and into the 2000s, the lineup would include bands like Korn, Disturbed and Linkin Park. Weezer has played at least five times, as have Blink-182 and Jimmy Eat World.
