Kane previously programmed E.W. Scripps’ Country WKTI (94-5 KTI Country)/Milwaukee until October 2016. Before that he was with Woodward Communications in Green Bay-Appleton-Oshkosh as PD/morning personality at Rhythmic WKSZ (95.9 Kiss FM) and PD of Adult Hits WKZG/WKZY (KZ Radio 92.9 & 104.3). Commenting on his newest Wisconsin radio adventure, Kane said, “I’m excited to be leading the charge at such heritage stations! The Cumulus-Oshkosh staff is already doing great things and I can’t wait to watch this cluster flourish in 2018.”
