Atlanta Alternative Rock radio personality Will Pendarvis will return to the WNNX-FM (99X) as Assistant Program Director and afternoon talent, beginning Monday, April 17. Pendarvis is one of the original members of the 99X on-air team launching 99X in 1992 with Sean Demery and Leslie Fram. He can be heard weekdays from 3-7pm and will all-new content as well as classic segments from the legacy show.

Cumulus Media Chief Content Officer Brian Philips said, "Will's arrival is yet another landmark moment for the re-born 99X. Will personifies the 99X vibe, always has- he's a soulful, one-in-a-million bundle of surreal contradictions. He is cosmically imaginative, lightning-fast with deadpan, self-deprecating humor, and of course, he's a master class professor in all things Rock. We've still got a few rabbits to pull from the Original 99X hat, but securing Will's return is as epic as anything the new station has done."

Pendarvis commented: "Everybody knows however awesome it is to travel, nothing beats the feeling of finally getting home. In a huge sense, that is exactly what I'm doing. Going back to the people and the place that is 'home' for me... and I could NOT be more excited about coming home to 99X! It's a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity - happening again."
