CUMULUS MEDIA Alternative WKQX/CHICAGO has named CHRISTINE "NICCI" NUNEZ as Exec. Producer for “BRIAN & LOU in the Morning,” MISCHELL LIVIO joins for part-time weekend on-air duties, and sister Classic Rocker KLOS/L.A. comic/weekender GREG BEHARRELL will headline a special SATURDAY night show, which will be launched in the coming weeks.

NUNEZ previously produced the “DREW GARABO Live" show at COX's WHPT/TAMPA. LIVIO previously worked with CUMULUS at Alternative KHTB/SALT LAKE CITY.

“All three of these appointments signify our ongoing commitment at CUMULUS to put talented people in positions to grow both personally and professionally," WKQX PD and CUMULUS MEDIA VP Rock TROY HANSON said. "Both our audience and advertisers will benefit from bringing NICCI, GREG and MISHELL into the creative fold of WKQX.”                          

“I can't believe that in less than a week I'll be living in CHICAGO and working on 101WKQX!" NUNEZ said. "I'm going to miss TAMPA and the warm weather -- but I've got my puffer jacket and am ready to do this! Thank you to SETH KUSH and to DREW GARABO for preparing me, as well as TROY HANSON and CUMULUS CHICAGO for giving me this dream opportunity. I'm so excited to join BRIAN and LOU and help expand on an amazing show in the city of CHICAGO.”

LIVIO said: “I’m thrilled to be rejoining the CUMULUS family and to work in the incredible facilities here in CHICAGO.”  

BEHARRELL added: "To the great people of CHICAGO, let me be the first to say sorry."
