Louisiana’s very own Music Man, world-renowned Bernie Cyrus, former Music Commissioner and award-winning host of "New Orleans After Midnight" and "LTV". Whether he’s jamming with local legends or opening for Leon Russell, Bernie is pure New Orleans, having spent childhood summers and the last decade living on the North shore. After 30 years in radio and television, this is his first crack at a drive-time talk show, and Bernie’s ready to bring everything to the table.

Bernie grew up between Arts and Music streets, married a girl born on Music street, has two sons in the industry, and has helped dozens of young artists get started. Bernie has been involved in causes as diverse as the design and promotion of Louisiana’s State quarter and the renovation of the oldest Jazz Hall in the World, the Dew Drop Dance Hall. In his 30-plus years in the music business, he’s produced and hosted over 300 TV and radio shows. With a background that also includes 7-plus years in telecommunications, 5 years as an educator and a stint at the St. Tammany’s D.A. office, Bernie can’t wait to air his views on music, business, law, education local politics and more on the all new WGSO.
