Kiss & Mix Moves In Milwaukee

• Busy day in the hallways of the Entercom broadcast complex in Milwaukee, as promotions and personnel moves dominate the conversation. The action begins with Molly Cruz (left), who is named APD/MD of Top 40 WXSS (103.7 Kiss FM). She will retain her current position as APD/MD and midday personality across the hall on Hot AC WMYX (99.1 The Mix). She succeeds Nathan Graham, who was recently named PD of Top 40 sister WDZH (98.7 AMP Radio)/Detroit.

And there’s more — Kiss FM weekend personality JMatt (center) is upped to middays on Kiss and Digital PD for the cluster, which also includes WSSP-AM (105.7 The Fan). And finally, 99.1 The Mix welcomes Aaron Carreno (right) back to the station as afternoon drive talent.

“Big things are happening in the Milwaukee cluster,” said Chuck Sullivan, SVP/Market Manager, Entercom Milwaukee. “Molly is ready to dominate her expanded role as Assistant Program Director and Music Director. Aaron is a top-notch personality whose experience will bring improvement to The Mix’s afternoon drive, and JMatt is going to take our cluster to new heights from a digital perspective.”

“I am so humbled by this opportunity to continue the success of WXSS and WMYX alongside Brian Kelly,” said Cruz. “Both stations have a deep history in the Milwaukee community and I can’t wait to have a hand in delivering top programming to our listeners.” JMatt said, “I grew up in Brookfield, WI and my favorite radio station has always been 103.7 Kiss FM,” JMatt said. “I am beyond excited to have earned my dream job with this team, at this station specifically, and I sincerely thank David Moore and Leigh McNabb for giving me a chance on the radio, and Nathan Graham and Brian Kelly for their guidance.”

Carreno previously worked at Mix as on-air personality and Production Assistant from 2008 to 2010. More recently he was doing double-duty as afternoon talent on sister KZPT (99.7 The Point)/Kansas City and mornings (as “Aaron Rogers“) on Hot AC WMHX (Mix 105.1)/Madison, WI. “To say I’m thrilled about joining the team at WMYX is an understatement, as I first began my career there a decade ago,” said Carreno. “So many great friends and personalities have graced the hallways of Entercom Milwaukee, and I’m truly looking forward to returning home. Thanks to Chuck Sullivan, Brian Kelly and Molly Cruz for bringing back the boy to Wisconsin.”
