Fielder Circles Back To Midland-Odessa

• Townsquare Media is pleased to announce the hire of veteran radio executive Aleese Fielder as the new Market President of the company’s Midland-Odessa, TX group — Rhythmic KZBT (B93), Classic Rock 99.9 KBAT; Country KNFM (Lonestar 92.3); Hot AC KODM (Mix 97.9), and KMND-AM (Fox Sports 1510/99.5).

“Aleese is a strong and accomplished leader who most recently ran NRG’s stations in Wisconsin,” Townsquare COO Erik Hellum tells RAMP. “The cool thing is that she is returning to the same stations where she started her career 22 years ago, and we are very excited to welcome her to the Townsquare team.”

Fielder circles back to Texas after a 12-year run with NRG Media Wausau-Stevens Point, WI, where she most recently served as Market Manager. She spent the first seven years of her career with Cumulus, starting as an Account Manager in Midland-Odessa, before moving up to GSM in Lexington, KY and Market Manager in Louisville.

“Fielder commented, “22+ years ago, I began my radio and digital career in the Midland-Odessa market, and thanks to Townsquare Media, I will be returning there to work with and grow that amazing team! It isn’t very often that you are granted the unique opportunity to return to the same stations where your career started, but that is exactly what has happened, and I couldn’t be more excited!”
