• Entercom just announced leadership promotions at Mainstream Rock 99.9 KISW/Seattle — Ryan Castle has been promoted to Brand Manager of the station and Taryn Daly has been elevated to Assistant Brand Manager of the station. Castle (left) as served as Assistant Brand Manager of KISW since joining Entercom in October 2003. He will also continue as Brand Manager of Classic Rock sister 92.3 KGON. Daly (right) has done nights on KISW and has served as Asst. MD and the station’s Digital Captain since 2015. She’s also the Social Media Director for the Seattle cluster.

These two promotions follow last week’s elevation of longtime Seattle SVP of Programming Dave Richards, who is joining Entercom’s corporate programming leadership team as Senior Vice President of Programming.

“I’m extremely proud to elevate these two tremendous leaders who have already contributed much success to KISW and reward their hard work and dedication,” said Jack Hutchison, SVP/Market Manager of Entercom Seattle. “I have full trust in Ryan and Taryn’s ability to lead this iconic brand celebrating in its 50th year in Seattle and beyond.”

Castle said, “I’d like to thank Dave Richards, Jack and Pat Paxton for entrusting me with this legendary brand. This radio station and this staff mean the absolute world to me and I’m stoked for the opportunity to continue the legacy of the Northwest’s most entertaining radio station.” Daly commented, “Joining this team eight years ago was an absolute dream come true, and that dream continues with the incredible honor of growing my career at this legendary radio station.”
