Audacy is making a series of programming updates at KNDD-FM (107.7 The End) in Seattle. Beginning April 16, "Locals Only" returns with host Steven Graham (far left). The End's long-time two-hour show devoted to music originating in Seattle and the Pacific Northwest will air Sundays from 7-9pm PT. Graham spent five years as the most recent host of "Locals Only" on 107.7 The End.

The station will celebrate the show's return with a "Seattle Sounds" weekend featuring artists who have broken out of Seattle and the Pacific Northwest, from Nirvana, Pearl Jam, Soundgarden and Alice In Chains to Death Cab For Cutie, Modest Mouse, The Head and the Heart, Brandi Carlile, Syml, Sunny Day Real Estate and many more.

"We're thrilled to bring Steven and a station staple back into our programming slate and once again spotlight the music originating from this corner of the country," said Audacy Seattle Senior Vice President and Market Manager Jack Hutchison. "We're equally excited to welcome Ian and his program into the weekday mix and add his love for music into our lineup."

"After two and a half years of the show being off the air, I am extremely excited to have the opportunity to rejoin the team at The End and be a part of this important platform for local artists coming back to life," said Graham. "As a kid who grew up listening to The End and loving Seattle music, hosting 'Locals Only' was a dream come true. Being trusted with the show again is an honor and I can't wait to get started."

The station subsequently announces Ian Camfield as afternoon host. Camfield will be heard on weekdays from 3-7pm PT. Camfield broke into the industry at 16, hosting overnights on London station Country 1035. He then moved on to Heart 106.2, London's premier Female AC station, where he stayed for a year - learning radio craft by introducing Celine Dion songs. His big break came at Xfm, the UK's first alternative station/

Camfield then moved to New York to do afternoons on K-Rock, then to Phoenix in 2016 to work for KUPD-FM and KDKB-FM, where his show won "Best Morning Show" 2019 from Phoenix Magazine and hosted "Ian Camfield's Morning After" podcast, which gained more than 150,000 subscribers. In 2020, Camfield headed to Dallas Fort Worth to join Audacy's KVIL-FM (ALT 103.7), as well as contribute content to sister stations KRLD News Radio 1080 (KRLD-AM) and 105.3 The Fan (KRLD-FM). He's also heard on Audacy stations in Denver, Detroit and San Diego.

"I have been a fan of The End since I used to stream it in the UK and steal their ideas for my London radio station," said Camfield. "It is great to now be part of the team for this iconic alternative brand."
