"We're proud to be home of Colorado's New Country," said Turnbeaugh. "After launching with 'two miles' of continuous music-over 10,000 songs in-a-row-we'll welcome The Bobby Bones Show in the mornings followed by local personalities, who will provide listeners with the best Country music and content you won't hear anywhere else."

"Today marks the dawn of a new day for Denver's Country fans," said iHM Denver President Tim Hager. "No other company embraces the Country lifestyle better than iHeartMedia. Our unparalleled resources-including The Bobby Bones Show, unique on-air and digital content, and strong industry partnerships-are the foundation upon which 106.7 The Bull is built. Add local programming, community involvement and the unmatched reach of iHeartMedia Denver, and it's clear that 106.7 The Bull will quickly become the destination for Country listeners."
