RADIO ONLINE | Friday, March 1, 2013 | 2:47pm CT

Greater Media names Baltazar as the co-host of the new "Baltazar & Pebbles Morning Show" on Rhythmic AC WTKK-FM (Hot 96.9 FM)/Boston beginning March 4. Baltazar most recently served in mornings on CBS Radio Hot AC KZZO-FM (100.5 Now FM) Sacramento. Before KZZO, he handled mornings at CBS Radio's Rhythmic AC KMVQ-FM (MOViN 99.7)/San Francisco for two years. Previously, Baltazar aired in mornings at WKTU-FM/New York.

"I had to pinch myself and ask if this was a dream to reunite with my radio soul mate, Pebbles, who I enjoyed such great chemistry and success with in Boston," said Baltazar. "What a winning formula: Rob Williams as front office genius, Cadillac Jack as the masterful coach & Pebbles as my playmaker. I can't wait to say hello to Boston & rekindle our amazing relationship!"

"2013 is shaping up to be a very good year for the All New Hot 96.9," said Director of Programming Cadillac Jack McCartney. "The list is very small of radio personalities in America who would, on day one, already have a raving fan base in Boston, proven chemistry with Pebbles, and a great sense of humor to top it all off. Baltazar brings that and more to our station. I am very pleased to be able to add another "A" talent to the team and reunite Baltazar and Pebbles for the first time in over 12 years for the listeners of Boston."

His 24-year career also includes stints at KIIS-FM/Los Angeles and WBBM-FM (B-96)/Chicago. Baltazar also did mornings at WJMN-FM/Boston with Pebbles from 1994-2001. The duo officially returns to the Boston radio airwaves after being apart for the 12 past years.
