Nash Icon and America’s Morning Show Grows!

Cumulus announces that America’s Morning Show hosted by Blair Garner launched last month on six new affiliates: WZRR-FM, Birmingham, AL; WOMG-FM, Columbia, SC; WWFF-FM, Huntsville, AL; WOGT-FM, Chattanooga, TN; WKOS-FM, Kingsport, TN; and WUUF-FM, Rochester, NY. America’s Morning Show airs weekdays from 6:00 a.m.-10:00 a.m. local time. The new affiliates bring the total number of stations airing America’s Morning Show across the U.S. to 41. America’s Morning Show is nationally syndicated by Westwood One, and brings superstars of Country to listeners in an authentic, entertaining and informative way. Fans have access to a daily mix of Country hits, lighthearted and candid interviews with Country music’s biggest stars, and news about the Country lifestyle. The show originates from the NASH Campus in Nashville, TN, before a studio audience with frequent broadcasts from NASH studios throughout the country. Host and National Radio Hall of Famer Blair Garner has won the Academy of Country Music’s award for On-Air Personality of the Year three times and brings a conversational interview style that generates unique content that has made him one of the nation’s leading hosts. The other members of the morning show crew – Ashley Figueroa, Chuck Wicks, Terri Clark, Robin Meade and Erika Grace Powell – each give listeners a reason to wake up and smile with their varied musical backgrounds, vibrant personalities and knowledge of the industry. Garner said: ““I’m so incredibly grateful to welcome these new members to our America’s Morning Show family. We don’t take this lightly. Every station, regardless of market size, puts tremendous faith in us when signing us on. They are entrusting us with the care of their signal for four hours a day. Day by day, show by show, we will work hard to be deserving of that trust. We are truly blessed.” Peter Z, Program Director for new affiliate 99.5 NASH ICON/WZRR in Birmingham said: “The ability to have stars like Carrie Underwood, Maddie & Tae and more in-studio for interviews and fun on a regular basis puts 99.5 NASH Icon way ahead of what the other country stations can do. We look forward to gaining serious momentum with America’s Morning Show.” NASH Icon stations feature Country music’s most iconic artists, driven by Country music fans’ desire for more exposure to their all-time favorite artists from the last 25 years.
