We're getting the band back together! Tune in to Dave Sholin, mornings on KFRC 106.9 FM. 

About Dave: 

Sholin, named one of music’s “Heavy Hundred” by Rolling Stone magazine and an inductee into The Rock and Roll Hall of Fame, graduated from San Francisco State and started his radio career at San Jose’s KLIV as Music Director and announcer.  After finding success at KLIV he then revamped the ailing KARA into a Bay Area ratings powerhouse as one of the first architects of the Hot AC format.  

Sholin then joined RKO’s KFRC, where under his guidance the station won Billboard Magazine’s “Major Market Top 40 Station of the Year” for an unprecedented seven years in a row.  RKO then promoted Sholin to National Music Director, where he oversaw the play lists of all RKO’s music stations. 

While serving in this capacity, was able to interview many musicians, including one which was truly historic:  On December 8, 1980, Sholin Spent the afternoon talking with John Lennon in his New York home, in what would end up being Lennon’s last interview.  After overseeing production of “The Beatles: From Liverpool to Legend”, Sholin returned to the Bay Area, becoming Gavin Report’s Top 40 Editor.  In 1984, Sholin and several other editors bought the Gavin Report, and when the magazine was sold in 1993 Sholin stayed on as Executive Director.  Also in 1984, Sholin returned to KFRC as on-air host and Program Director as well as hosting syndicated Top 40 Shows for Westwood One and Premiere Radio.  

In 1998 Sholin moved to the record industry where he has served as Vice President of Promotion for both Island Records and Capitol Records, Vice President of Musicbiz.com, as well as Senior Director of Adult Promotion for the EMI Music Collective and most recently Director of Adult Formats for Caroline/Astralwerks Records.
