KZHT-FM (97.1 ZHT) in Salt Lake City debuts "E. White & Erica in the Morning" beginning Monday, August 7 from 6-10am MT. White started his career as a weekend air talent on WIOQ-FM in Philadelphia in 2017, before moving to KKDM-FM Des Moines for afternoons later that year. Prior to joining KZHT, E. White was hosting nights on KDWB-FM in Minneapolis. Erica Shea comes 97.1 ZHT from KHTS-FM in San Diego's "Geena The Latina & Frankie V" morning show, where she was a producer and co-host since March 2022.

"This is an exciting day for morning radio and especially for 97.1 ZHT," stated iHeartMedia Salt Lake City Market President Judy Copier. "E. White and Erica bring an enthusiasm for live, local radio that is contagious and endearing. An open book is what you'll find with these two as they share pretty much everything happening around them. I'm sure listeners will be entertained as they discover and embrace their new radio broadcast home in Utah."

"Hosting a morning show has been my dream since I cracked a mic on my college radio station in 2014, so to see it come to fruition is absolutely surreal," said E. White. "To Jeff, Judy and the people who have trained and mentored us to where we are today: thankful is a massive understatement. Salt Lake City is such an incredible spot, and I'm excited to be part of the fabric of this community."

Shea added, "It's not every day you get to see your dreams since you were 12 years old become a reality, hosting a morning show has always been mine. I can't wait to get started with E. White and the incredible team at iHeart Salt Lake City! I am beyond grateful to Jeff and Judy for this opportunity, as well as the mentors, co-workers and listeners who have been so supportive along the way. I am so excited to make early mornings something listeners look forward to and to dive headfirst into the Salt Lake City community!"

I'm really looking forward to the launch of the "E. White & Erica in the Morning" show in Salt Lake City," said iHeartMedia Salt Lake City SVPP Jeff McCartney. "These are two extremely dedicated and talented on-air hosts and I have no doubt that they will make an impact on ZHT as well as within the Salt Lake City community."
