Picture
Stephen has always had a passion for American Country Music and his American Country Show won Gold in the PPI Radio Awards 'Specialist Music Programme' category in 2015  

He began his radio career with Dublin’s Q102 where he presented the early evening show under the name of “The Boy Wonder”.

​​He presented the “The Stephen Keogh Breakfast Show” on Midlands 103FM for six years, before moving to CKR FM to present the breakfast show.

In 1999 Stephen started with Today FM, presenting the popular “Friday Night 80’s for two years.

Stephen also hosted many of Today FM's flagship shows before donning his Stetson in October 2001, where once again
early mornings were on the agenda with Dublin’s Country Mix.

​Since then Stephen spent time with both TV3 and FM104, before taking up the breakfast position with Kildare's Kfm in 2004.
​
The 'Stephen Keogh Breakfast Show aired for 12 years before Stephen decided to concentrate on TV / Video making and other radio projects.

​​Nowadays Stephen can be found right here on Country Hits, and playing 'Feel Good Music' on Dublin's Q102
