Garcia Reappears Across The Hall, Like Magic
• After more than 16 years as co-host of the successful Carlos & Kiki morning show on Cumulus Top 40 KOBQ-FM (93.3 The Q)/Albuquerque, NM, Kiki Garcia has unplugging and moved across the hall to host her own solo morning show on AC sister KMGA (Magic 99.5) — Magic Mornings With Kiki Garcia will air weekdays from 6-9am.
Market Manager Jeff Berry said, “I have worked with Kiki since 2006, and she is a total pro. Her smile and positive attitude are contagious in the building, and perfect for Magic. I’m so excited to see her take on this new role and help Magic regain its dominance in Albuquerque.”
Chris Hoffman, PD of Magic 99.5, commented, “Kiki Garcia is absolutely the ideal choice for mornings on Magic 99.5. Listening to Kiki is like waking up with your bestie. Her feel-good energy coming out of the speakers makes everyone’s day better.”
Garcia said, “I’m beyond excited to be part of such a heritage station as Magic 99.5. My goal is to inspire, uplift, and bring people together. Whether listening for the great music, meaningful conversation, or just a little laughter, I want everyone to feel a part of the Magic family, making every morning a little brighter… together!” Garcia can be congratulated at kiki.garcia@cumulus.com.
Back at The Q, Leah Black, who formerly co-hosted The Q morning show from 2002-2011, returns to replace Garcia on the wake-up show, now rebranded as Carlos D & Leah Black.
