On his namesake show and New Music Daily, Apple Music 1’s flagship shows, host Zane Lowe brings users unparalleled music knowledge with headline interviews, breaking news, and emerging music from around the globe every day. It’s become the world’s go-to for the best brand-new music, sure, but it’s also popular music’s premier confessional booth: Day after day, Zane—who’s also Apple Music’s global creative director and co-head of artist relations—gets the biggest, most elusive superstars, from Justin Bieber to Taylor Swift to Kanye West, to let their guards down—laughs, tears, and news-making quotes are the norm. “I’m a curious person, I ask questions, and I guess if I'm passionate about something, I'll talk about it and engage people about it. I want to start a conversation and learn,” Zane explains of his approach. “Because the more you share, the more you learn, and vice versa. It’s just a circle that keeps spinning.” Zane earns guests’ trust with a music obsessive’s curiosity and enthusiasm, compassionate questioning, and firsthand music knowledge of life as an artist—he started his music career recording and performing, and continues to write, produce, and record. “The artist side of it, that really drives what I do,” he explains. “I'm not a conventional media-type personality. I’m no good at being a host, really. I'm not a journalist. I don't write, I'm not a writer. What I do is feel and translate.” Check out Zane on The Zane Lowe Show every Monday through Thursday on Apple Music 1 at 9 am LA/12 pm NYC/5 pm LDN and New Music Daily every Friday at 9 am LA, 12 pm NY, and 5 pm LDN.

MUSIC HISTORY
Singer-songwriter and Nashville native Kelleigh Bannen knew that music was her calling at an early age. “I started playing the violin at 5,” she says. “My first violin was a Cracker Jack box with a paint stirrer glued to it!” The Apple Music Country host began her songwriting career in her twenties, eventually landing a recording contract and touring alongside some of country music’s biggest names, including Little Big Town and Luke Bryan. Now independent, Kelleigh continues to write and record music on her own terms in between her Apple Music show. “I am continually inspired by this music community,” she says. “Nashville is bursting with talented vocalists, storytellers, and dreamers.” Kelleigh’s favorite days (and nights) include cowrites with fellow songwriters, or a little bourbon alongside her favorite Stapleton, Lambert, and Church records—many of which she plays on her daily namesake Apple Music Country show. With warmth and humor, Bannen brings listeners insider perspectives and interviews that are thought-provoking and honest—giving both veteran hitmakers and new artists a space to share their journey, inspiration, and creative process. Says Kelleigh of her show: “It’s artist-to-artist conversations with some of the biggest names in country, high energy, and a lot of fun for music-obsessed fans like me.” Hear The Kelleigh Bannen Show every Monday through Thursday on Apple Music Country at 7 am LA/9 am CT/10 am NYC/3 pm LDN.
