On the heels of the announcement of M\u00f6tley Cr\u00fce’s Las Vegas residency at the Hard Rock Hotel & Casino throughout February and the release of his second best-selling book This Is Gonna Hurt, international rock icon Nikki Sixx celebrated the upcoming launch of Sixx Sense with Nikki Sixx on top Los Angeles alternative rock station 98-7fm at The Roxy Theatre in West Hollywood last night. At the listener event hosted by 98-7fm, fans were treated to a Q&A with Sixx and live musical performances by American Idol rocker James Durbin and rock band Nico Vega. Photos and videos from the event can be viewed at www.987fm.com and www.SixxSense.com. <\/p>\n

Sixx Sense with Nikki Sixx will debut January 16 on 98-7fm in the 11 p.m. to 4 a.m. weeknight timeslot. The addition of 98-7fm marks an affiliate high of more than 80 stations for the Premiere Networks syndicated program, which launched nationally in February 2010. <\/p>\n

“My dream was always to be on 98-7 six days a week because the music programming is diverse, open minded and always looking forward,” stated Sixx. “While most stations stick to repetitive playlists, 98-7 isn’t afraid to cross formats and show multiple musical influences. In an age of fear-based business, I have a real partner that has the balls to be original. Los Angeles is a hot bed of art, entertainment and new music. This is a perfect fit\u2026I am really proud to be part of the team.”<\/p>\n

“Nikki is both a music icon and innovator,” stated 98-7fm\/KYSR Program Director Julie Pilat. “It’s been fantastic working with him over the last two years since we added The Side Show Countdown to 98-7fm on the weekend. He knows Los Angeles and the alternative format inside and out, and has a really unique perspective to share with the 98-7 audience. Nikki’s passion for music, art, and social media are right in line with our station’s strategy, and I am so excited to have him as part of our team nightly.”<\/p>\n

Each night on Sixx Sense, the international rock icon, founder\/bassist\/songwriter of the world-renowned band M\u00f6tley Cr\u00fce and chart-topping band Sixx:A.M. (Sixx, Dj Ashba and James Michael), two-time New York Times best-selling author, clothing designer, philanthropist and photographer Nikki Sixx discusses music and lifestyle topics as he gives listeners a backstage look at the world and mind of a rock star.
