Hartford Is Damon & Cory Country
iHeartMedia’s WWYZ (Country 92-5)/Hartford also announced its new morning show — Damon & Cory will roll weekdays from 5-10am, starting July 5. Current WWYZ morning co-host Cory Myers will now be joined by a man who is the very epitome of market equity — Damon Scott, who crosses the street after a remarkable 27-year run in afternoon drive over at CBS Radio Hot AC WTIC-FM.
“We are excited that a well-known local personality like Damon Scott is joining long-time morning host, Cory Myers, on Country 92-5,” said Steve Honeycomb, President of iHeartMedia’s Hartford Region. “Damon Scott is a familiar name that has been on the radio in Connecticut for years. He understands how to connect with listeners and the local community as well as what it takes to be successful in radio.” Scott remarked, “When you leave on a high note after 27 successful years, you need a special plan for your return. I’m excited to take the next step by joining Country 92-5 and the iHeartMedia Hartford team.”
Damon & Cory replace Broadway’s Electric Barnyard, as host Broadway exits after 4 1/2 years. Broadway arrived in Hartford in late 2012, transitioning from the morning co-host spot at WKIS (Kiss 99.9)/Miami. His previous stops include WBCT and WSNX/Grand Rapids, MI. Broadway can now be reached at broadway.radio@yahoo.com.
