Who is the host of Los Santos Rock Radio?

Kenny Loggins hosts the station, and he uses his own name. Before the game came out, a classic rock news site reported that Loggins would host the classic rock station in GTA 5. In the same report, soundtrack supervisor Ivan Pavlovich told Rolling Stone: "This is the most exciting soundtrack we've done."

On air, Loggins calls himself "Captain Loggins". He talks as if the listeners are on a boat trip with him. The GTA 5 website gave the station this line: "Get on the good ship power pop and rock." CBR quotes two of his on-air lines:

  • "I'm Captain Loggins, and you're on a cruise"
  • "I need to trim my beard, let's go to a commercial"

Loggins has two of his own songs on the station. "I'm Free (Heaven Helps the Man)" was in the launch version. "Danger Zone" came with the new versions. He also co-wrote "What a Fool Believes" by The Doobie Brothers.

Each GTA 5 station has its own host. Cara Delevingne hosts Non-Stop-Pop FM, for example. Our list of GTA 5 radio DJs and who voices them gives the host of each station.

Which Los Santos Rock Radio songs play in missions and trailers?

Some songs play on their own at set points in the game. Three songs from the station were in GTA 5 trailers before the game came out:

Song Artist Where it plays
Ogdens' Nut Gone Flake The Small Faces The first GTA 5 trailer
Radio Ga Ga Queen Michael's trailer
I Can't Wait Stevie Nicks The Xbox 360 trailer
The Breakup Song (They Don't Write 'Em) The Greg Kihn Band The end of the in-game film "Meltdown"
Danger Zone Kenny Loggins After you steal the Hydra jet in the Humane Raid – EMP mission in GTA Online (new versions only)

"Danger Zone" first came out in the film Top Gun.

Which songs were cut from Los Santos Rock Radio?

Rockstar planned more songs for the station than it used. "I'm Alright" by Kenny Loggins was due to play on Los Santos Rock Radio, but it is not in the final game. The GTA Wiki also says that the game files list more unused songs for the station. The wiki marks that list as disputed, so we do not repeat it here.

Is Los Santos Rock Radio in GTA 6?

Not so far. Rockstar named the first six GTA 6 stations on 8 October 2026:

  • Cocoteo FM
  • Back Country Radio
  • AfroBank FM
  • The Chamber 106.6
  • Flash FM
  • Dirty South Classics

Los Santos Rock Radio is not one of them. GTA 6 is set in the State of Leonida, not in Los Santos. In 2022, Loggins told ComicBook Gaming that he hopes to come back for GTA 6, as TechTimes reported. Rockstar has not said that he does. For the same answer about the pop station, read Is DJ Cara in GTA 6?

Do you want to hear a GTA host say your own words? The GTA radio voice generator reads your line in the DJ Cara voice over the Non-Stop-Pop FM intro. The voice is an AI recreation of the radio character, not Cara Delevingne, and Rockstar has nothing to do with it.
