Singer, songwriter and actress Kelly Pickler is joining SiriusXM’s The Highway beginning Monday, Feb. 14. Pickler will host middays from 11 a.m.-3 p.m. CT Mondays-Fridays on The Highway via satellite (Ch. 56) and on the SXM App.
“I am so excited to join the SiriusXM family as a host on The Highway,” shares Pickler. “This is such a fun and amazing opportunity to really connect with country music fans across North America. I’m looking forward to sharing some of my current favorite songs and artists, along with chatting with some very special guests!”
Pickler is known for her Gold-certified debut album, Small Town Girl; her Platinum single “Best Days of Your Life;” and five Emmy nominations for her talkshow Pickler & Ben. In 2018, she made her Hallmark Channel debut with Christmas at Graceland, their highest-rated movie in history, and followed that up with the June 2019 sequel, Wedding at Graceland. For the films, Pickler recorded and performed “Silent Night,” “I’ll Be Home For Christmas,” “Joy To The World,” and Elvis Presley hits “Can’t Help Falling in Love” and “Hound Dog.” In between touring, she also filmed her third Hallmark movie, The Mistletoe Secret, which premiered in November 2019.
Last year, Pickler was announced as one of the USO’s Global Ambassadors, supporting the organization’s Give More Than Thanks initiative–a campaign encouraging all Americans to find actionable ways to express their gratitude for the service and sacrifice of our troops and their families.
