Hey y’all, it’s Bo the Webguy checking in on this beautiful January 20, 2026—that’s right, National DJ Day! 🌊🎧🏖️ If you’re anywhere near the Grand Strand or just craving that perfect beach music vibe, you gotta give a massive shoutout to the crew at 94.9 The Surf. These folks aren’t just spinning tracks—they’re keeping the Carolina Beach Music, shag grooves, boogie, and blues alive and kicking every single day. They’re the heartbeat of Ocean Drive, the official station of the Society of Stranders, and straight-up the King of the Beach.
Big ups to the live DJ legends who make the airwaves pop:
- Jim Morgan — dishing facts, stories, and those timeless tracks like he’s your old beach buddy sharing memories.
- Jim Quick— smooth operator bringing that classic feel and the Best Day Ever vibes. Always hits different.
- DJ Heavy — owning the afternoons with The Traffic Jam, dropping killer sets of Beach Music, Southern Soul, and Blues that turn any drive (or desk grind like mine) into a party. Dude’s energy is unmatched—come on!
- Old Soul Cole — the fresh face (well, newer energy) who’s already killing it with his love for legends like Lil’ Redd and the Mighty TAMS. Bringing that soul without missing a beat. Bangers! Turn YO Radio UP!
- Jay Kinlaw (Superjock J.J.) — rocking the Surf Countdown on Saturdays and keeping everything entertaining and on point. You know it Baby – YES INDEED!
Today on National DJ Day (shoutout to the day that honors the record spinners and music masters), I’m cranking 949thesurf.com extra loud while I surf the web. These DJs don’t just play music—they create the soundtrack for shag nights, oceanfront hangs, and good times all around.
Whether it’s live weekdays, weekend countdowns, or the nonstop stream, they keep it real and keep it beachy. If you’re tuned in right now, drop a comment: Who’s your go-to Surf DJ, and what’s the track that’s got you moving today? Let’s celebrate these wave-riding wizards! Tell ’em Bo sent ya. 🎶🙌 Keep it locked to 94.9 The Surf—because life’s too short for bad tunes.
Happy National DJ Day, fam! 🌴🔥
Love ALL the awesome Surf DJs. They keep me company at home, in the car, and on the app when traveling. Congratulations to the JIms, Heavy, Old Soul Cole and Jay J!!!

They are ALL greaaaaat DJs keeping everyone entertained all morning and night. When I’m in my car and turn it on 94.9 the surf is automatically on. I can’t drive my car without it.
I just read Bo’s email that it’s National DJ Day!! So a big “shout out” to all the great DJ’s on 94.9 The Surf!! When I am sitting at my desk working (in Covington Georgia), I listen to Jim in the morning, and Jim Quick 11:00-3:00. When I’m out making sales calls, I listen while driving. (Tuesday’s I’m on the road quite a bit). I also listen to Jay’s Top 20 Countdown on Saturday when I can. “Beach Trip” is playing right now as I am typing this, and that is one of my favorites! Thanks to all The Surf DJ’s for playing all this wonderful, feel good, make you want to move your feet music! It’s not only great music, it’s a way of life!! Hope you all have a great day!!!!
Happy National DJ Day!!! I Love listening to the Surf!! DJ Heavy!!! MY favorite DJ!!
