AD Rowntree Wakes Up In Vegas

• iHeartMedia Mainstream Rock KYMT (93.1 The Mountain)/Las Vegas has named AD Rowntree as APD and morning host.

Rowntree (adorable dog sold separately) relocates to Las Vegas from San Diego, where he most recently did middays and afternoons on sister KIOZ (Rock 105.3). He will continue to be heard in other iHeartMedia markets including Houston, Sacramento, Denver and nationwide on iHeartRadio’s digital custom Rock stations. Rowntree also does afternoons on iHeartMedia Alternative KTBZ (94.5 The Buzz)/Houston and his daily talk show is heard on KPRC/Houston, WTKS/Orlando, WZZR/West Palm Beach and on iHeartRadio. A former major label recording artist, Rowntree began his radio career at 94.5 The Buzz and SiriusXM’s Alt Nation and Octane.

Rowntree reports to Tony Matteo, PD of 93.1 The Mountain and SVP of Programming for iHeartMedia’s Central California/Nevada Region, who said, “AD’s on-air work and storytelling is outstanding and his extensive programming track record makes him the perfect fit for 93.1 The Mountain. We’re thrilled to bring a talent of AD’s caliber to 93.1 The Mountain and I know he will contribute to our station’s ongoing success.”

A visibly excited and happy Rowntree exclaimed, “I’m so excited and happy to join the iHeartMedia Las Vegas team. I’m thankful for the opportunity to live, work and connect with the listeners in this amazing city. I see huge potential in The Mountain, and we’re going to shake up mornings and have fun doing it!”
