Shannon Ellis
10am - 2pm
It all started in Shannon’s grandparent's living room with old Beatles and Captain and Tenille records. He set up a little booth and played DJ. He also sold pretend fireworks for added income.
At the age of 19, Shannon got his foot in the door at KNAC in Los Angeles where he volunteered to promote the station and answered request lines for the jocks. When the station was sold in 1995, Shannon moved to Las Cruces to be close to his family.
While in Las Cruces, Shannon landed a job with KLAQ working as a DJ but was soon enticed over to 103.1 (back when they were playing rock). Dividing his time between Boise, Idaho and Albuquerque, NM, Shannon worked as DJ and Imaging Director for Clear Channel. He eventually made his way back to the thriving Las Cruces market where his wealth of talents were soon recognized.
Shannon now works as an integral part of Bravo Mic Communications where he assumes multiple roles: Operations Manager for all four stations, assisting in music direction, producing station imaging and indulging his passion as a DJ for the Rocket.
