"Righting a wrong has never felt better... You're welcome," said iHeartMedia Atlanta President Drew Lauter. "96 Rock was an iconic rock station in Atlanta for decades, serving the community with some of the best rock and roll ever recorded. I'm thrilled that listeners nationwide can now experience this station again anytime and anyplace."

"96 Rock is a legendary brand," added Senior Vice President of Programming Meg Stevens. "Multiple generations grew up with 96 Rock in their lives and it was a staple to the Atlanta community. Having it back will allow new generations to enjoy the station on a digital platform while allowing us to engage the audience in new cutting edge ways."
