Christmas Cheer Comes to the Mahoning Valley Extra Early

Christmas 104

Cumulus Media launches "Christmas 104" on WWIZ-FM/Youngstown. The Valley's Christmas Station debuted Friday at 12:25pm on WWIZ, previously programmed as "Z104, The Valley's Goodtime Oldies" station. "We Need a Little Christmas" by Percy Faith and His Orchestra kicked off the festive and familiar lineup of holiday tunes, which will run through year-end on WWIZ-FM.

Cumulus Youngstown VP/Market Manager Bill Kelly said, "If ever we could use a little Christmas, right this very moment, it is this year. We simply want to lift people's spirits."

Operations Manager Charley Connolly added, "We're bringing much-loved Christmas music to our listeners about a month earlier than we did last year. By playing traditional and new Christmas classics on Christmas 104, The Valley's Christmas Station, we are doing our part to usher in the season of love, peace and joy even earlier."
