Jonathon Brandmeier Net Worth

Jonathon "Johnny B" Brandmeier is a Chicago radio personality and musician.
Born John Francis Brandmeier to a German father and a Lebanese mother, Brandmeier started his radio career in 1973 at WFON in Fond du Lac, Wisconsin. When he was 18 (1974 or 1975), he joined WOSH-AM in Oshkosh, Wisconsin, later working as a DJ at WYNE (now WHBY-AM) in Appleton, Wisconsin, then at KLIV-AM in San Jose, California, then as the morning jock at WYBR-FM (now WXRX-FM) in Rockford, Illinois, and then in 1980 at WOKY-AM in Milwaukee. In February 1981, he was brought on as the KZZP-FM morning DJ in Phoenix, Arizona, where he participated in prank phone calls and silly song parodies. In 1982, Brandmeier released his first album Just Havin' Fun.
WLUP ("The Loop") in Chicago hired him in 1983, where his morning show was broadcast on both 1000 AM and 97.9 FM stations. He also had a short-lived TV show in 1991, Johnny B. on the Loose and recorded three more albums, Almost Live (1984), Brandmeier (1989) and Dink: The Man Formerly Known As Brandmeier (1994) with his band Johnny and the Leisure Suits. His most memorable songs include "We're All Crazy In Chicago" (a local Top Ten hit), "Hey Der Milwaukee Polka", and "The Moo-Moo Song" (based on an actual event in the 1980s when a local attempted to make love to a cow in the Lincoln Park Zoo). A few of his songs were occasionally played on the Dr. Demento Show, which was also syndicated on Sunday nights on WLUP until 2010.
A management change at WLUP in 1997, however, led to the end of Brandmeier's 14-year run on The Loop. He briefly hosted middays at WCKG in Chicago, and had subsequent stints in Los Angeles at KLSX and KCBS-FM. Brandmeier attempted syndication, during which his show was aired on KZZP, Phoenix. However, he was unable to deliver the ratings necessary and his syndication was quickly cancelled.
After some time away from radio, Brandmeier returned to mornings at WLUP in October 2005. He has also made several appearances
