One night after listening to WXRT it occurred to Tom Marker, ‘Maybe I could be a disc jockey instead of having to work for a living!’ After radio gigs in Michigan, South Carolina and Elgin, Illinois, Marker landed his dream job at WXRT in the summer of 1980. After a year at the station Tom was switched to full time and in 1984 hosting ‘Bluesbreakers’ was added to his on-air duties. Tom is heard on ‘Chicago’s Fine Rock Station’ daily from noon to 3:00 p.m. On Monday nights he returns for ‘Bluesbreakers.’ The show features the newest Blues releases and classic recordings from legendary performers, plus an overview of the most exciting live Blues shows in the coming to town.
