 107.3 HANK FM |
NRG Media/Cedar Rapids-Waterloo, IA, flips CHR K297BS (107.3 The Party) and KPTY-AM (1330) to Classic Country as "107.3 HANK FM" with the slogan "Playing the Legends of Country." Both outlets will continue to serve the Waterloo-Cedar Falls area while playing songs from artists such as Garth Brooks, George Strait and Alan Jackson to Tim McGraw, Reba and Toby Keith.
NRG Media Operations Manager Jeff Winfield said, "Country music is about great stories. In addition to playing classic county on HANK we will go behind the music and share those stories with our listeners. We'll have features like HANK's Music Vault, Stories Made the Music, HANK Artist Spotlight and Rewind County." Winfield continues, "We want our listeners to crank it to HANK."
President/CEO Mary Quass commented, "My roots in radio are with classic country. I am thrilled to make this format switch. I know HANK FM will fill the void for listeners who want to hear the country artists and songs that made country music great."
