After announcing its intent to relaunch “PickleJar Up All Night” on Monday, August 18 on Midwest Communications’ “Y’all 106.7” WNFN Nashville, PickleJar Entertainment Group has announced its hosts for the new version of the show.
Musician turned former CMT host Katie Cook and longtime Country programmer and on-air host Scott Gaines will team up to host the show. PickleJar President/co-founder Kristian Barowsky said, “Pairing Katie’s iconic television presence with Scott’s deep radio background gives PickleJar Up All Night a powerful blend of storytelling and industry insight. They’re both passionate about the music and the people behind it, and I can’t wait for fans to hear what they’ve built together. We’re thrilled to bring PickleJar Up All Night back on the air with an aggressive affiliate strategy and talent-forward approach. This show isn’t just a return to radio—it’s a platform for launching new music, connecting fans with artists, and building unforgettable experiences through content and contests powered by the PickleJar Live app.””
Cook spent two decades at CMT hosting multiple shows across the network. Gaines has held roles at Country stations including KPLX Dallas, WDTW-FM Detroit, WSM-FM Nashville, WGKX Memphis, WKHX Atlanta, Alpha Media Amarillo, SummitMedia Knoxville, Westwood One, and Local Radio Networks.
Cook said, “Getting back behind the mic feels like coming home. I’m excited to reconnect with fans, share great stories, and celebrate the music I’ve loved my whole life.”
