Cumulus Media flips WIWF-FM (Nash 96.9)/ Charleston, SC, to Classic Hits as "The All-New 96.9 The Wolf." The former Country outlet kicked off its new Classic Hits programming at 12 noon on Wednesday. 96.9 The Wolf will play classic hits such as "Another One Bites The Dust" by Queen and "Every Breath You Take" by The Police, with hits from artists including Billy Joel, Journey, Prince, Bryan Adams, Hall & Oates, A-Ha and Blondie.

Cumulus Charleston VP/Market Manager Sherry Dollar said, "Our New Year's resolution is to be the station that only plays the best of Charleston's Classic Hits. We think listeners will love hearing the songs that have stood the test of time and are now Classics! Their all-time favorites all have a home at 96.9 FM."

WIWF-FM Operations Manager Bill West added, "The All New 96.9 The Wolf will be a celebration of Charleston's Classic Hits. Every time you tune in, I guarantee that you'll hear a song you grew up with - the most important music of your life in a clean, non-controversial format that's void of typical radio 'clutter.' 2019 is going to be the Year of the Wolf."
