July 20, 2011 - PRLog -- Magic 96.5, a local Birmingham radio station, is celebrating Christmas in July by switching it’s format for the weekend to continuous Christmas Music.  The station will be playing Christmas songs from artists like Burl Ives, Josh Groban, Amy Grant, and more this weekend.  The Christmas music starts at the stroke of midnight on Saturday morning, July 23rd, 2011 and will continue through 7 o’clock PM Sunday night.

Rich McMillan, Program Director for Magic 96.5, said “We’re delivering what the listeners want.  They’ve been asking about it (Christmas Music) since the beginning of June!”

Magic 96.5 has gained a reputation as “the Christmas station” in Birmingham, and generally starts playing Christmas music as early as November each year to set the stage for Christmas.  

Magic 96.5 also received the Alabama Broadcaster Association’s “Service Project of the Year Award” for their Christmas Wish fundraiser in 2010.  The station held an on-air auction and raised money which was then handed over to Birmingham families that needed some extra help during the holidays.
