Donnie McClurkin Kicks-Off National Live Event Series In NYC
DONNIE MCCLURKIN recently brought THE DONNIE MCCLURKIN RADIO SHOW to life with a live event held at PERFECTING FAITH CHURCH in FREEPORT, NEW YORK. He partnered with NEW YORK R&B WBLS for the festivities.
MCCLURKIN said, “I’m so proud of my team who put together this highly impactful landmark event which was conceived as a thank you to our listeners.”
“I especially enjoyed the passionate interaction with our local listeners face-to-face, many of whom traveled long distances to attend. We will be taking this live radio show experience all across the country this year and next leading up to our 20th anniversary.”
WBLS OM CYNTHIA SMITH added, “DONNIE did DONNIE. It was an experience that I didn’t know that I needed, and DONNIE delivered as he always does. Donnie McClurkin is just a gem, and he does what he does so effortlessly. He brought the crowd out and all the WBLS listeners had a transformative experience that they will never forget. As a radio program, he’s our lead into STEVE HARVEY and it sets the tone for the rest of the day with his great following and #1 ratings.”
“DONNIE executing the features of the radio show live including ‘Let DONNIE Cook’ was both inspiring, entertaining, and educational, not to mention the thoroughly riveting singing performances including the BROWN BOYS and of course DONNIE himself.”
The show, currently in its 19th year, airs in 75 markets and reaches nearly 5 million listeners weekly. The event marked the first in a series of planned national appearances celebrating the show’s legacy and audience connection. It was produced by EMMY Award-winner AUDRA WEST and included a DJ performance by show producer T STORM.
OCEANIC TRADEWINDS Pres. GARY BERNSTEIN commented “This was a hugely successful test run for what will be an incredible NTR opportunity for DONNIE’s radio affiliates across the country.”
