Audacy has named Bay Area native Andre Yancey Brand Manager of KRBQ-FM (102 JAMS) in San Francisco, where he will oversee the station's content strategy, talent, operations and branding. Yancey will continue serving as Assistant Brand Manager for WXBK-FM (94.7 The Block) in New York.

"As a Bay Area native, Andre understands what the community wants and needs," said Skip Dillard, Audacy's Urban AC and Throwbacks Format Vice President. "We look forward to seeing how his creative instincts and acute eye for technology come together to elevate the brand and deepen its connection with listeners."

Yancey said the appointment represents a homecoming to the market where his broadcasting career began. "Radio has been part of my life since I was a kid growing up in the South Bay - a companion, a soundtrack, a way to feel connected," he said. "Complex has been an incredible steward of JAMS, and we're going to continue building on everything he's put in place. JAMS is a love letter to The Bay and its contribution to culture."

Yancey brings more than two decades of radio and digital media experience to the position. He got his start on the KMEL street team before working alongside the station's Morning Zoo. Prior to joining Audacy in 2021 as Director of Morning Content Operations for WCBS-FM in New York, he served as a creative strategist and content developer, and was Director of New Media for United Stations Media Networks, where he developed digital platforms for nationally syndicated brands including Alice Cooper, Open House Party and HardDrive Radio. He also worked as a personality and producer for "Rollin' with Nick Cannon" at 92.3 NOW in New York.

At Audacy, Yancey helped relaunch the WCBS-FM morning show following the pandemic before playing a key role in launching 94.7 The Block. Under his leadership, the station earned consecutive Gracie Awards and became Audacy's most-used urban streaming brand.
