Gaither and his wife Gloria have written more than 600 songs, many of which have become popular standards of Christian music, for which they were named ASCAP’s Christian Songwriters of the Century.
Southern gospel and contemporary Christian music icon Bill Gaither will be hosting a new weekly radio program beginning July 9 on Sirius Satellite Radio.
“Bill Gaither’s Homecoming Radio,” will feature three hours of classics and new music from the southern gospel genre, and will air Sundays on channel 62, The Roadhouse at 9 a.m. ET and again at 9 p.m. ET.
“I am very excited for this opportunity to team up with Sirius to take encouraging, positive music to their many listeners on a weekly basis,” said Gaither. “It is always rewarding when our programming finds its way into new places, but in this case it is particularly thrilling to be a part of the rapidly-expanding world of satellite radio.”
Bill Gaither’s Homecoming Radio expands Sirius’ commercial-free Christian music offerings, which includes channel 66, Spirit (Christian hits), channel 67, Revolution (Christian rock) and channel 68, Praise (gospel).
