KUAD-FM (New Country 99.1) Fort Collins, CO, is set to debut "New Country Mornings with Jordan and Michael" on Monday, March 11. The hosts of the Townsqwuare Media outlet's new morning show will be Jordan Soto, most recently an air personality in Pensacola, FL and Michael Mason, a radio host in Seattle and Richmond where he spent a decade.

"I am so excited to take this next step in my career with such an innovative team and such an exciting time in new country music," commented Soto. "I traded in snowy white beaches for actual snow -- I'm all in: festivals, fishing, off-roading, country swing dancing, snowboarding. I mean I even get to live on a ranch. The mountain sunrises and sunsets are mesmerizing every single day."

"From the moment I arrived in Northern Colorado I was hooked -- and not just because of the indisputable beauty. Huge thanks to my trusted friend Kraig Kitchen who introduced me to this winning team. I've truly never been so excited to work and collaborate with so many big market guns, in such a special place," added Mason.

Townsquare Fort Collins Market President Evan Harrison said, "At Townsquare we are completely focused on entertaining and engaging our local community in Northern Colorado. Jordan and Michael are the perfect duo to lead this charge on New Country Mornings. Jordan lives the new country lifestyle completely and is a Colorado native. Like so many of us living here, Michael is new to the area, and he is so eager to dive in to experience it all -- together they'll be sharing real stories about our day to day lives here in NoCo and celebrating New Country with their listeners."
