The first Big Cheese at KSZC

Thursday, June 4th, 2009

Nathan Ellstrand is the seasoned soul-spinning DJ of Heaven on Earth, which airs every Sunday from 2-4pm. Nathan’s love for soul stems from his early exposure to the Oldies genre and continues because it’s the best thing to dance to on a Sunday morning. Heaven on Earth has become a stress-reliever for Nathan, who currently volunteers with Students Together Opposing Poverty (STOP), works as a writing tutor, and has held a chair at MSG (Merrill Student Government) for two years.
