Veteran radio management pro Dennis Lamme has been hired by Townsquare Media Monmouth-Ocean, NJ as Market President & Chief Revenue Officer for AC WOBM, Hot AC WJLK (94.3 The Point), Classic Rock WCHR (105.7 The Hawk) and Oldies simulcast WOBM/WADB (Beach Radio 1160 & 1310) and Shore Sports Network. Lamme has spent most of his long radio career with iHeartMedia/Clear Channel, most recently as President, Mid-Atlantic Region until a year ago. His previous President/Market Manager stops with the company include Washington/Baltimore, Philadelphia, Pittsburgh, St. Louis and Albany, NY.
In a staff memo, Townsquare SVP of Operations Rob Williams said of Lamme, “We worked together at Clear Channel where I saw firsthand his ability to build a winning team and to deliver outstanding results. A former member of his team sent me a text upon hearing the news: ‘You’ve hired a rock star!’ Absolutely!”
Williams added, “For the past five years, Dennis, his wife Jeanmarie, and their two children have lived in Toms River, NJ, home to our radio stations, and I am thrilled that his proximity and our opportunity came together. With this move, [GM] Michael Ruble will be able to focus his time in Atlantic City; and, I’d like to express my gratitude to him for the outstanding job he did this past year. Mike quickly stabilized our operations and got sales moving forward again, showing why he’s one of the best in our company. Our strong New Jersey team gets stronger. Welcome, Dennis!!”
