KMLE (Country@107.9) Phoenix personality Alana Lynn, who has hosted the Country outlet's afternoon show since 2017, will join Niko Petrou as co-host of "The Breakfast Buzz," weekdays from 5:30-10am MT. The new role is in addition to Lynn's current post as the station's Music Director. Concurrently, air talent Nina D, who has hosted the station's same morning show since 2013, will transition to afternoons from 1-7pm. Both changes are effective immediately.

"Alana and Nina D both bring incredible talent and commitment to KMLE," said Entercom/Phoenix Senior VP/Market Manager Dave Pugh. "We're looking forward to them continuing to raise the bar for the station and connecting with audiences in their new time slots."

"There's something rare about getting up at 3am and playing a role in people's lives as they get ready for the day," said Lynn. "The opportunity to do mornings at KMLE is a dream come true."

Prior to joining Entercom, Lynn held on-air roles for KUAD and KKPL in Fort Collins CO, KAWO in Boise ID, KUPL in Portland OR and KBQI in Albuquerque. Nina D previously held an on-air role at sister KALV-FM (Live 101.5) in Phoenix. Prior to joining Entercom, she hosted nights for KDHT in Austin.

"I remember pushing the play button the day the New KMLE @ 107.9 hit the air in 2012 and I have the same excitement today about being a part of this iconic brand as I did back then," added Nina D. "I'm going to make sure you're having fun listening from wherever you are tuning in."
