Tim Cotter Named Program Director at KDRK in Spokane

Tim Cotter

Tim Cotter joins Stephens Media Group's Spokane cluster as Program Director for New Country KDRK (93.7 The Mountain), effective September 21. He makes the move from crosstown KXLY where he served as Assistant Program Director and Music Director for 13 years. Previously, Cotter worked at KDRK and sister KEYF so this is a homecoming for him. In addition to programming KDRK, he will assume the PM Drive show, the same time slot he held at KXLY.

"This is a truly a homecoming for me," said Cotter. "The KDRK call letters are a big part of my radio history. I couldn't be more excited to work with Kent Jones, Jamie Patrick, and the Stephens Media Group team to build something special at KDRK."

"We saw an opportunity to build KDRK and make a great impact on Spokane. With Tim's leadership in synergistic partnership with APD Jamie Patrick, 93.7 The Mountain will have huge energy," added Operations Manager Kent Jones.
