Austin Wakes Up With Wayne D, Tay & Bama

• iHeartMedia’s 98.1 KVET, “Austin’s All-Time Country Favorites” just launched a new morning show, featuring WSIX (Big 98)/Nashville-based afternoon drive duo Wayne D and Tay Hamilton virtually joining longtime Austin talent Bama Brown, forming the all-new Wayne D, Tay & Bama, enjoyed weekday mornings from 6-10am.

Gator Harrison, PD of 98.1 KVET, said, “Wayne D is an absolute pro on-air quarterback on all levels. Tay is the smart, instantly likeable, voice of reason, and Bama is absolute authentic Austin FOMO. You never know what’s going to come out of his mouth.” He added, “Austin is going to love these guys as much as I do.” Brown said, “In my 35 years in the Austin market, I don’t believe I’ve ever been as excited to have new radio show partners as I am with Wayne D and Tay. They are fun, funny, interesting, full of energy, and just great people, and I’m a huge fan of them both. They are the future of KVET and iHeart, and I’m just so thrilled to be along for the ride.”

Wayne D commented, “98.1 KVET is such a legendary brand in Country radio, so when Gator brought up the opportunity to launch a new show, there was no way we could pass it up. What makes it even better is we get to spend our mornings with Bama, who is KVET and has been for a long time.” Tay Hamilton adds, “To be a part of such a legendary radio station is an absolute honor, and finding out that Bama and Gator wanted us, we were just elated. I can’t wait to be the fiery female that tries to keep Wayne D and Bama in line, and this is going be fun.” And yes, to answer the obvious question, Wayne D and Tay will continue to host afternoon drive on Nashville’s BIG 98 and sister KWNR (95.5 The Bull)/Las Vegas.
