Nashville, TN — iHeartRadio’s The Bobby Bones Show raised $2.25 million during its annual two-day Radiothon this past December 3rd and 4th. Featuring uplifting and timely performances from a star-studded lineup including Chris Stapleton, Dierks Bentley, Luke Combs, Miranda Lambert, Sam Hunt and many more, Bones’ CMA and ACM Award-winning national radio show and its loyal listeners have now helped garner over $16.25 million overall for the special cause.
“I say it all the time, but none of this is possible without the passion of the #BTeam,” Bones said. “Supporting the kids and families at St. Jude is so important to us and I’m so grateful all of you show up year after year and make this event so incredible.”
Bones is currently filming his travel TV series Breaking Bobby Bones, slated to debut on National Geographic early next year. He has also returned to his role as official in-house mentor on American Idol’s upcoming 4th season, premiering on ABC on February 14th.
Radio and TV personality Bobby Bones, who “has carved out a place for himself in nearly every corner of the entertainment world” (American Profile), is host of the nationally syndicated radio show “The Bobby Bones Show,” which broadcasts to over 170 stations and is the No. 1 Country morning show with millions of weekly listeners. The show recently garnered its second Country Music Association Award for National Broadcast Personality of the Year and fourth ACM Award for National On-Air Personality of the Year, and earned Bones the title of youngest-ever inductee into the prestigious National Radio Hall of Fame.
