CBS Radio Dallas-Fort Worth has tapped Mike Kannon for mornings on 103.7 KVIL, weekdays 5:30 a.m. to 10:00 a.m., effective immediately. Kannon was most recently morning drive host for KLIF-FM in Dallas-Fort Worth. Prior to that, he was program director at WRDW-FM in Philadelphia.

"Kannon brings a wealth of social media experience and an expansive knowledge of everything pop culture to our more music morning show on the New 103.7 KVIL," said program director Jay Michaels. "That, combined with his knowledge of the Dallas-Fort Worth area, make him a great addition to our incredible live and local air staff."

Kannon has also served as music director and nighttime host at WBTS-FM in Atlanta and held the same positions at WJBQ-FM in Portland, Me. He began his radio career as a high school student in Raleigh, hosting weekend overnights at WRDU-FM and went on to become the mix show DJ in Boston for a nationally-syndicated program, "Open House Party," which he now hosts on Sunday nights.

"I'm so happy to be doing what I love in the greatest city in the world," said Kannon. "I'm deeply honored to be part of Team KVIL!"
