Kenzie K Takes Middays @ B96/Chicago
• We now know where Kenzie K is headed — snowy Chicago, where she has been hired as the new midday personality on Entercom Top 40 WBBM-FM (B96), effective Tuesday, February 26. We recently reported that Ms. K had resigned from middays on Beasley Rhythmic WLLD (WiLD 94-1)/Tampa Bay for a mystery gig TBA. Mystery solved.
“We have admired Kenzie K for quite some time and are incredibly excited to welcome this rising star to the Entercom team,” said Jimmy de Castro, SVP/Market Manager, Entercom Chicago. “Her creativity and enthusiasm are a great fit for B96 and we look forward to her debut in Chicago.”
Kenzie commented, “I cannot wait to join the amazing Entercom team in the city I’ve always dreamt of. Thank you to Jimmy de Castro, [Entercom Chicago VP of Programming] Todd Cavanah and [B96 APD/MD] Erik Bradley for this incredible opportunity. I’m looking forward to getting to know listeners in the Windy City.” Kenzie K’s previous radio stops include KDWB/Minneapolis and KDOG/Mankato, MN. Kenzie succeeds Nikki, who exited last week after a decade in the position.
