Radio One Brings ‘Classix’ To Atlanta
“Ever since Tom left the market, there has been an outcry for him to return to Atlanta,” said Tim Davies, RVP/GM. “We found the audience for our Boom format was too narrow. By expanding the playlist and launching a fresh R&B sound with the Tom Joyner Morning Show in the morning, and, for the first time in Atlanta, The DL Hughley Show in afternoons, Classix 102.9 will be a great new station for the market, and a perfect complement to our cluster.”
Hurricane Dave, VP of Programming & Ops announced that Erwin “Katt D” Hill has been named as PD of the new Classix 102.9. “We love to promote from within our organization,” he said. “I’ve had the pleasure to see Katt D in his role as APD for Majic 107.5/97.5 and Praise 102.5. There’s no doubt he’s going to do some amazing things in his new role as Program Director of Classix 102.9.”
