Audacy has announced that Greg Hill has signed a multiyear contract extension to remain in mornings alongside Jermaine Wiggins, Courtney Cox and Chris Curtis. Hill joined WEEI in July 2019 (https://radioinsight.com/headlines/178886/greg-hill-moves-from-waaf-to-weei-boston-mornings-as-gerry-callahan-exits/) after previously spending over two decades in mornings at sister Rock 107.3 WAAF.

Audacy has announced a multiyear contract extension with WEEI (WEEI-FM) morning show host Greg Hill. Hill will continue to be heard on ?The Greg Hill Show? alongside co-hosts Jermaine Wiggins, Courtney Cox and Chris Curtis, weekdays from 6:00 a.m. to 10:00 a.m. ET.
?We are thrilled to extend Greg?s contract and keep the momentum going for his award-winning morning show,? said Mike Thomas, Senior Vice President and Market Manager, Audacy Boston. ?We look forward to having Greg, alongside Jermaine and Courtney, continue to set the tone for our weekday programming and deliver entertaining content for our listeners for the foreseeable future.?
?I cannot thank Mike Thomas, Mark Hannon and Jeff Sottolano enough for giving me the opportunity to wake up at an inhumane hour every day for many more years,? said Hill.
Hill was named the 2022 Marconi Radio Award winner for Major Market Personality of the Year. The show?s Nielsen ratings are up 60% year-over-year and consistently leads Audacy programming across the country in Twitch viewership.
Hill grew up in Stow, MA, and is a lifelong Massachusetts resident. For nearly three decades, he was the host and namesake of ?The Hill-Man Morning Show? on WEEI?s sister station WAAF. Hill has been a Boston fixture since beginning his career at WAAF in 1986 in the promotions department and on-air since 1991. He is active in the sports community and has done regular interviews with prominent sports figures such as Patriots Hall of Famer Ty Law, former NFL quarterback and now football analyst Boomer Esiason, and former Bruin Mike Milbury, among many others. In addition to his work on the radio, Hill and his listeners have been a force in charitable giving. In 2010, Hill launched ?The Greg Hill Foundation,? which has accumulated over $27 million in donations distributed to over 9,000 beneficiaries (local families and organizations).
