"Who doesn't love the big reveal at the end of a makeover show," said ALT 104.5 Program Director Amber Miller. "Well, ta-da! Philly's Alternative Rock station is now sounding bigger and better than ever, combining the music and personalities our listeners love with this fresh, energetic new aesthetic. The station offers listeners the same music and entertainment they crave, just with a fresh new coat of paint."
