Market vet Julie Jones returns to Blooming Prairie Farm Radio's Classic Hits KNXR-FM (Minnesota 97.5) Rochester, MN as co-host of "Rise and Shine with Lou and Julie." Additionally, she'll also host middays. Before KNXR, Jones hosted mornings on crosstown iHeartMedia's Country KMFX-FM (Fox 102.5).

OM Lou Kastler added, "Julie's love for our community, passion for radio, and most importantly, how she connects with listeners is something I have been in awe of for the last 25 plus years. She's got a big heart and for us to have come full circle and be together again in our hometown is uncommon in today's media."
