Acadiana Broadcasting Group rebrands Classic Country KPCZ-FM/Lafayette, LA, to "Freedom 106.7." The move comes with a new morning show, John Boy & Billy in The Morning and One-Hour Commercial Free Block Parties playing "Your Country Legends" back-to-back for an hour with zero commercials during the day and evening after John Boy & Billy.

"Our research showed us that country music fans were not being served the music they really want to hear on radio," said Station Manager Renee Revett. "Listeners in Acadiana told us they wanted a radio station that played their country legends, especially 90's Country legends. We were especially surprised to find that many listeners were challenged by the lack of a fun morning show on country radio in the Lafayette area. So, we repurposed the 106.7 frequency to be a place for the freedom that Country listeners deserve in Acadiana."

She added, "We are not doing the cookie cutter stations that have become the controlled choice of big corporations in radio these days. Freedom 106.7 will be focused on avoiding pop country and giving our audience the country music that has meaning and frees them to enjoy the real music they love."
