Jason Bailey exits WNNX (Rock 100.5)/Atlanta after seven years hosting the "Bailey & Southside" morning show. He joined the Rock outlet in December, 2014 after previously holding down the morning slot at Sports WZGC (92.9 The Game)/Atlanta. Before that, Bailey was known as "Buckethead" with stints at WXTB (98 Rock)/Tampa, and WJRR (Rock 101.1) & WTKS-FM (Real Radio 104.1)/Orlando.

In a post on Facebook, Bailey wrote, "I just breathed my final breath at Rock 100.5/Atlanta. It was a good run with a lot of ups and downs. No doubt it was definitely time for me to move on from this part of my life/career. With that said. I wish nothing but the best to the show, station and management in their future endeavors... Time for a mental recharge before I move on."

Morning co-host "Southside Steve" Rickman and producers Nicky D and Mo Lightning remain in place. PD/afternooner Axel Lowe joins them for wakeups during the interim.
