Bryan Schock
Legendary DJ
From dreaming of radio studios in his youth to shaping the sound of San Diego in the 80s, Bryan Schock's career is a testament to his passion for music. He was there when 91X became a beacon for alternative sounds, navigating the shift from mainstream rock to the cutting edge. His experiences, from broadcasting from a shack in Tijuana to connecting with listeners through deep cuts and forgotten hits, have given him a unique perspective on the era. Now, on "Steve West's Legends of Alternative," Bryan continues to share his knowledge and enthusiasm, proving that the 80s are more than just nostalgia – they're a cultural touchstone.
